World Air Traffic 0-24 hrs (How about a flight today?)

Sent From Jeri:

"It is a 24 hour observation of all of the large aircraft flights in
the world, condensed down to about 2 minutes. From space we look like
a bee hive of activity. You could tell it was summer time in the north by the suns foot print
over the planet. You could see that it didn't quite set in the extreme
north and it didn't quite rise in the extreme south. I have never seen
this before. We are taught about the earths tilt and how it causes
summer and winter and have had to imagine just what is going on, With
this 24 hour observation of aircraft travel on the earths surface we
get to see the daylight pattern move as well."
