Having just gotten off another flight last night these videos were especially interesting to me today.
From Wired.com...
Scientists from the Zurich School of Applied Sciences have built a video simulation that displays the flight path of every commercial flight in the world over a 24-hour period. The team mined FlightStats for the departure and arrival times of every commercial flight in the world, then plugged it all into a computer to assemble their simulation.
This one is of all the air traffic over the US during a 24 hour period. Around the 10 second mark the map almost goes black except for my old standby, the red-eyes from the West Coast.
Might as well spice things up with a song from Lenny Kravitz that fits right in with this topic. Enjoy...
