Two Minute Video of 24 Hour World Traffic

This awesome video showing world air traffic over a 24 hour period, condensed down to about two minutes, comes to us courtesy Travelphant Travel Blog. The yellow dots are all aircrafts. You can tell it was summer time in the north by the sun’s footprint over the planet. Notice that as evening approaches, the traffic is predominantly from the US to Europe and when daylight comes, the traffic switches and it is predominantly from Europe to the US.
