NASA Time‑Lapse Captures India’s Nighttime Glow From Space

NASA’s Earth Observatory released a time‑lapse video that captures the Indian sub‑continent glowing from orbit. The footage, taken by the satellite’s night‑time sensors, shows cities and towns lighting up across the country as the day turns to night. The animation highlights the extensive network of urban centers that contribute to the country’s nighttime illumination. NASA said the clip will be used for educational purposes and to raise awareness about light pollution and sustainable urban planning.
