Abstract:
Some locations on the face of the earth illuminates with lights in the
night, as satellite images of the globe show. The United States, Western
Europe, and East Asia illuminate brighter than rest of the areas on
earth. A close-up image of a region or a country makes clear that, not
everywhere but only smaller locations illuminate leaving larger areas in
darkness in the night. In East Asia, for instance, the Pacific coastal areas
of Japan, the North Western and South Eastern regions of South Korea,
the Eastern coastal areas of China, and the Western coast of Taiwan,
illuminate brighter than the other areas of the respective countries.
