Summary
editDescriptionFlorida Peninsula at night, 13 October 2014 (ISS041-E-74232).JPG |
English: Astronauts on the International Space Station took this picture of Florida—the peninsula being highly recognizable even at night—especially when looking roughly north, as our map-trained brain expects. The brightest continuous patch of lights is the Miami narrow metropolitan area bordering the Atlantic Ocean—the second largest metropolitan area in the southeastern United States (after New York) with 5.56 million people. Illuminated areas give a strong sense of the size of cities: the next largest metropolitan area in the view is that of the Tampa Bay region on the opposite side of the peninsula, with 4.3 million people. Orlando, located in the middle of the peninsula, occupies a visibly smaller area reflecting a smaller population (Greater Orlando has 2.3 million people). The straight line of visible cities along the east coast stretches 560 kilometres (350 miles) from Jacksonville all the way to Wilmington in North Carolina, near Cape Hatteras.
