I have spent 23 years documenting the global LED transition of city lighting from space.
Across my 4 missions to the ISS, I have photographed every major city on Earth, building a data set of the gradual replacement of sodium vapor lighting with LEDs.
The warmer, yellow-orange of gas discharge lamps has been phased out worldwide to multi-colored LEDs, citing energy savings and environmental reasons.
Widespread adoption has markedly changed the way our cities look from orbit, and as many have pointed out, how they feel to those on the ground!
Here is a collection of the most striking before-and-after photos I have observed:
Democratic Socialists of America extends our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Dolly Parton, a hero of the working-class and an inspiration to us all.
🚨 WATCH: Count Binface responds to Nigel Farage calling him the "establishment candidate"
"That's interesting, isn't it? Because one of the candidates was a sitting MP, formerly an MEP and the architect of Brexit... if that's not the establishment, I'd like to know what is"
Francesca Hong did lose but she has a future if she navigates things well.
You know what other young progressive candidate ran for governor who was very awkward in their first attempt and got crushed by the establishment machine?
Abdul El-Sayed.
george being so caught off-guard after being called "russell" by a fan is so funny to me 😭😭 man started referring to himself in 3rd person
"russell is doing well, thank you"
The reason presidents are limited to two terms is because the last time we had a president who was a Democratic Socialist, the people elected him four straight times..
Abdul got more votes than Bernie Sanders did in either of his presidential runs.
- 2016 Bernie: 598,943
- 2020 Bernie: 576,926
- 2026 Abdul: 735,625+
Think about that.
