In pictures: NASA monitors the appearance of cities at night, as if they were millions of stars

ArabiaWeather.com - In recent years, the US space agency NASA has released pictures showing the shape of the globe with the lights of cities at night, in a scene that would not have become real without the presence of electric power.

The images were built by collecting cloudless night satellite images, so that the whole world appears dark, with cities and roads lit up as if they were stars swimming in the vastness of the vast universe.

Through this image, you can determine the distribution of cities, population density, illuminated highways, and the places where electricity is used around the world.
