            "description": "On Dec. 14, 2010 NASA Goddard researchers conducted a press briefing at the American Geophysical Union Fall 2010 meeting, entitled, \"Satellite Supported Estimates of Human Rate of NPP carbon Use on Land: Challenges Ahead.\" In the first measurement of this trend, the research showed humans are using an increasing amount of Earth's annual production of photosynthetic land plants due to both increases in population and per capita consumption, and that amount of Net Primary Production (NPP) required rose from 20 to 25 percent from 1995 to 2005.This visualization illustrates the relationship between human acquistition of net primary productivity (HANPP) and NPP itself, by presenting the ratio of HANPP to NPP.  It is a carbon balance sheet showing the percent of terrestrial net primary production that is required to provide food, fiber, and wood-based fuels for the world's global population in 2005.Measured in terms of carbon, regions where the populations are consuming more than is generated on the landscape show up as yellows and reds.  The colors are presented on a logarithmic scale, meaning that the value of the data at each unit on the scale is ten times that of the previous unit; i.e. areas in red are 100 times (or greater) the value of areas in green.  Therefore yellow, for example, with a value of HANPP/NPP = 10^0, or 1, represents regions were people require an amount of NPP that is 100 percent of the regional production, and red represents regions where people require more production than is locally available, up to 1000 percent and beyond. Values of less than 10 percent are not shown.  This map shows where populations are highly dependent upon a food and fiber distribution system and are arguably potentially vulnerable to climate change. || ",

Human-made lights highlight particularly developed or populated areas of the Earth's surface, including the seaboards of Europe, the eastern United States, and Japan. Many large cities are located near rivers or oceans so that they can exchange goods cheaply by boat. Particularly dark areas include the central parts of South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. The 'Earth at Night' picture is actually a composite of hundreds of images made by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP).  DMSP currently operates four satellites carrying the Operational Linescan System (OLS) in low-altitude polar orbits. Three of these satellites record nighttime data. The DMSP-OLS has a unique capability to detect low levels of visible-near infrared (VNIR) radiance at night. With the OLS 'VIS' band data it is possible to detect clouds illuminated by moonlight, plus lights from cities, towns, industrial sites, gas flares, and ephemeral events such as fires and lightning-illuminated clouds. The Nighttime Lights of the World data set is compiled from the October 1994 - March 1995 DMSP nighttime data collected when moonlight was low.

            "description": "This image of Earth's city lights was created with data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) Operational Linescan System (OLS). Originally designed to view clouds by moonlight, the OLS is also used to map the locations of permanent lights on the Earth's surface.The brightest areas of the Earth are the most urbanized, but not necessarily the most populated. (Compare western Europe with China and India.) Cities tend to grow along coastlines and transportation networks. Even without the underlying map, the outlines of many continents would still be visible. The United States interstate highway system appears as a lattice connecting the brighter dots of city centers. In Russia, the Trans-Siberian railroad is a thin line stretching from Moscow through the center of Asia to Vladivostok. The Nile River, from the Aswan Dam to the Mediterranean Sea, is another bright thread through an otherwise dark region.Even more than 100 years after the invention of the electric light, some regions remain thinly populated and unlit. Antarctica is entirely dark. The interior jungles of Africa and South America are mostly dark, but lights are beginning to appear there. Deserts in Africa, Arabia, Australia, Mongolia, and the United States are poorly lit as well (except along the coast), along with the boreal forests of Canada and Russia, and the great mountains of the Himalaya. || ",

At the Sun, simulations investigate processes that create magnetic field and release energetic particles. Earth science begins with the Pacific Ocean, studying the 1997-98 El Niño and Cyclone Susan. Crossing the globe, visualizations trace North America's East Coast and ocean currents in the North Atlantic Ocean. The lights of the world's cities then show human impact. Next, two models probe nearby-space phenomena, fluid behavior in microgravity conditions and an asteroid collision. A jaunt to Mars explores the mountains and trenches of its dry, rocky exterior. The video concludes at a binary neutron star system, where two city-sized objects with the Sun's mass merge in a titanic explosion. || ",
