Space Night is a "all-night" programme on a german government TV channel. There are no advertisements on that channel. Instead of commercials they play hour after hour of films, looking on earth from a spacecraft in orbit.

Astronauts have reported that the earth doens't look the same from space than it used to. Airpollution has increased enormously... and global warming will change the climate too fast for many of the earth's live-forms to survive the next 200 years. Also look at Norbert's collection of NASA pictures, showing air-pollution from space.

Also have a look at The starfish - idiocy page and on my Tesla-Tower page for a nice photo of the aurora borealis.
