This image is a panoramic view of the world from the
new Boeing-built space station. You can scroll
East-West and North-South. Canada's population is
almost exclusively along the US border. Moving east
to Europe, there is a high population concentration
along the coast of the Mediterranean. Check out the
development of Israel compared to the rest of the Arab
countries. Note the Nile River, The Outback of
Australia and the TransSiberian Rail Route. Moving
east, most striking is the difference between North
and South Korea. Truly unique! It is an absolutely
awesome picture of the Earth.
