Korean pennisula at night

Here is a pic from outer space, of Korea at night. It reminds me of when I was on the London-Moscow express and we reached the East German border - border guards with german shepards boarded the train, everyone's passport was inspected, the train was search, they walked on top of the cars, searched underneath the cars, then attached an East German locomotive: STEAM! As we chugged through the night the lights disappeared, I stood between the cars and watched as we passed crossings: horses and carts waited for the train to pass. There were no lights. The same thing with this picture; its says more than a thousand words.
