Photo of the Day: The India-Pakistan border, from space



From the Globe: "The India-Pakistan border appears as an orange line in this photograph taken by the Expedition 28 crew on the International Space Station. The fence between the two countries is floodlit for surveillance purposes."

A remarkable image, if also a depressing one -- one that literally highlights the artificial divisions that keep humans at war with one another.
