Holiday Lights Can Be Seen From Space
We've all had that neighbor at least once. The one who so enthusiastically decorates their home for the holidays that you swear the lights could be seen from outer space. Maybe you are that neighbor. I've had plenty of neighbors over the years with displays that might qualify for viewing from the International Space Station, and I've enjoyed them all. I look at it this way: I love over-the-top holiday lighting, and it's not being added to my electric bill. Win-win.
But, as the video above shows, we do actually add so many lights to celebrate our various holidays on Earth that they can be seen from space.
I should point out that astronauts and satellite observers will make fun of you if they can still spot your display blazing away in April.
