Summary
[edit]DescriptionKorean Peninsula at night - 2012 - NASA.png |
English: An image showing the Korean peninsula at night in the year 2012. A composite image, constructed using cloud-free night images taken by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite. These photographs were taken with the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), and the composite was published by NASA on December 5, 2012. I modified the image by removing the lights from ships on the open ocean to highlight the contrast between North Korea and South Korea.
Note: North Korea turns off street lighting late evening,[1] so if this photo was taken at around midnight local time, it might not indicate electricity generating capacity in a balanced way. |
