EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning beauty of Australia at night, as captured by the Black Marble satellite image. The vast continent comes alive with a mesmerizing display of city lights and the haunting glow of wildfires burning in the bush. This composite image, acquired over nine days in April 2012 and 13 days in October 2012, was made possible by the remarkable day-night band of NASA-NOa Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite's Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS). The contrast between urban areas and rural landscapes is strikingly evident, illuminating Australia's diverse habitation patterns. From space, one can witness the immense energy use and population density concentrated within cities while also appreciating the untouched beauty of its natural surroundings. However, this awe-inspiring view also sheds light on an unfortunate consequence: light pollution. The excessive illumination from cities creates a luminous blanket that obscures our view of the stars above. Nevertheless, it serves as a reminder of human progress and development on this ancient land. As we gaze upon this flat projection photograph taken during the 21st century, we are reminded not only of Australia's unique geography but also its resilience in facing challenges such as wildfires that ravage its bushland periodically. It is through images like these that we gain a deeper appreciation for Earth observation from space and how it contributes to our understanding of our planet's ever-changing dynamics.
