Yeah, but I imagine it would look just as cool with more efficient, more directed lighting. Plus, just think how much better our view of the stars would be.
It makes the Earth seem so small...just one little globe flickering with our lights here and there. Beautiful photos.
If you want those pesky lights gone, you can go to North Korea. There is a pic similar to these that shows Asia at night. North Korea is virtually dark while South Korea and Japan are pretty much totally lit up.
Truly wonderful pictures. The Nile one is awe-inspiring. Thanks to iBlue.
There seem to be slightly larger versions of some on the NASA site. I think this is an enhanced version of the Nile shot:

The angle has been changed but the cloud patterns seem the same.
