In 1984 the western edge of Ankara fit in one corner of this frame. Today buildings cover nearly a third of it.

Ankara ran west along the valley: 1.7 million people in frame to 4.7 million.

Landsat 8 caught a bright thermal signal at Mount Michael on August 24, 2026, through rare clear skies over Saunders Island. Infrared data reveals heat from a persistent lava lake in the summit crater, plus a small plume and darkened snow on the northern slopes.

Watch the bay. Antalya wraps the shoreline and pushes east until the flat land runs out and the mountains stop it.

One Landsat frame a year, 1984 to 2026. 270,000 people then, over 1.6 million now.

Kuwait City grew in rings, and from orbit you can count them.

42 years of Landsat, one frame a year. The ring roads fill outward from the bay into the desert: 1.4 million people in frame then, 3.7 million now.
