EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nile at night, satellite image" showcases the majestic Nile River in all its illuminated glory. Taken by the day-night band of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on board NASA-NOa Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite, this composite image captures the essence of a dark African night. The black marble appearance of the Nile is beautifully contrasted against the surrounding land and sea. The river comes alive with vibrant lights emitted by numerous boats that traverse its length, creating a mesmerizing sight. This image was captured over nine days in April 2012 and 13 days in October 2012, providing a comprehensive view of how energy use and population density influence illumination along this iconic waterway. From bustling cities to rural areas, habitation along the Nile Delta can be seen as clusters of bright lights dotting the landscape. The photo also highlights Egypt's urban centers glowing amidst darkness while neighboring Cyprus shines brightly across the Mediterranean Sea. However, beyond its aesthetic appeal, this image raises awareness about light pollution caused by human activity. It serves as a reminder of our increasing energy consumption and its impact on Earth observation from space. In summary, Science Photo Library presents an extraordinary visual representation capturing both natural beauty and human presence through their remarkable print "Nile at night. "
