Just thought it was cool looking how part of the US appears to be missing--and a good swath of Canada looks pretty dark, too.

I've seen the real one and this one's a fake.

The missing parts of the US are darker than the ocean.

Next time I'll google it...but my bro has always been a reliable
source. Sorry for the error.

Damn, that is insane. It looks like a bomb went off there.

Seeing the smaller pictures in the article helped, the differences in the big ones aren't as obvious. Long Island looked hit really hard though.

Thanks for the true photos. I knew the photos I saw going around looked fake. You can't better info than NASA.

The original is very pretty. There wasn't any need to doctor it, IMO.
