India-Pakistan border pictures shared by NASA



NASA on Sunday, 4th October 2015 shared some stunning pictures of the international border of India and Pakistan as seen from the outer space.

An astronaut from the International Space Station took photographs of the night time panorama of the border facing north across Pakistan's Indus River valley. The image is of one of the few international borders in the world which can be seen so clearly at night, especially due to the high security and several security lights across the border which have a distinct orange tint for it to stand out. 

The picture which was shared on NASA's Facebook page also shows the port city of Karachi which appears to be a bright cluster of lights in stark contrast with the black Arabian Sea.

There is another picture of the border zone between India and Pakistan as seen in daytime which was shared by NASA in 2011, The image shows the border zone looking south east from the Himalayas
