South America at night, satellite image

South America at night. Satellite image of the Earth at night, set against a background of stars, centred on the continent of South America. North is at top. City lights (yellow) show areas of dense population. The highest concentrations of population are on the south-eastern coast, in cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, and Buenos Aires. Large cities are also seen on the north-western coast. The large dark area (upper centre) is the sparsely populated and undeveloped Amazon rainforest. South America is relatively undeveloped compared to the bright lights of North America (top left), seen beyond the Caribbean islands. Image data obtained in 2001 by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP). Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © NASA/NOAA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of South America at night, as captured by a satellite image. Against a backdrop of twinkling stars, the continent takes center stage in this stunning visual representation of our planet from space. With North positioned at the top, the vibrant yellow city lights reveal areas of dense population across South America. The southeastern coast boasts the highest concentrations of people, with bustling cities like Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, and Buenos Aires shining brightly. Along the northwestern coast, large urban centers also make their presence known. In stark contrast to these illuminated regions lies a vast dark expanse occupying the upper center portion of the image - none other than the sparsely populated Amazon rainforest. This untouched wilderness serves as a reminder that despite human development and technological advancements showcased by city lights below, there are still pockets on Earth where nature reigns supreme. Compared to its northern counterpart - North America - South America appears relatively undeveloped in terms of artificial light pollution. The bright lights emanating from North America can be seen beyond the Caribbean islands towards the top left corner. The photograph was taken in 2001 by Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), providing valuable data for scientific research and analysis. It offers insights into population distribution patterns and highlights how technology has shaped our world in this new millennium. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from space, it prompts us to contemplate humanity's impact on our environment and consider ways to strike a balance between progress and preserving our natural wonders.
