Not the 'exact' same view, but similar where you can only the lights of the highways and cities, and total darkness elsewhere.

momadance Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Even though it might look pretty, its actucally not. What your looking at is light pollution. By those lights burning so brightly, they are using way to much energy. If only their was a free, unlimited amount of energy in the world, mabey it would be OK, but their is not.It does look pretty cool though------------------"Puff, Puff, Pass" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
