Southeast Asia at night, satellite image
Southeast Asia at night. Satellite image of the Earth seen at 18:00 (6pm) GMT (UCT), centred on China. City lights (yellow) show areas of dense population, particularly in India (left), China (upper centre) and Japan (upper right). Most of Australia (lower right) is uninhabited, as is the Arctic (top). Image obtained using data from Landsat 5 and Landsat 7 satellites

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Southeast Asia at night, revealing the stunning beauty of our planet from a satellite's perspective. The image, taken at 18:00 GMT (UCT), focuses on China as its center point and provides a mesmerizing view of the region's city lights. These luminous yellow dots represent areas with dense populations, notably India to the left, China in the upper center, and Japan in the upper right. As we explore this snapshot further, it becomes evident that vast portions of Australia (lower right) remain uninhabited while the Arctic (top) also lacks human presence. This visual contrast highlights how population distribution varies across different regions of our globe. The data used to create this extraordinary image was collected by Landsat 5 and Landsat 7 satellites. By combining their observations, scientists have gained valuable insights into various aspects such as meteorology, demographics, urbanization trends, and environmental impacts. Moreover, this photograph prompts reflection on humanity's relationship with light pollution and energy consumption. While cities shine brightly like beacons in the night sky due to their high population density and urban development, sparsely populated areas remain cloaked in darkness. In essence, this remarkable portrayal captures both Earth's geographical diversity and human influence on its surface. It serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness within Southeast Asia but also globally – an awe-inspiring testament to our ever-evolving world.
