false color, probably something like UV, IR, or xray enhanced. those are the most common false colors used for space pics.

Just like I thought, but nonetheless amazing. I really like colourful space pictures like that, even though they don't represent reality.

Some do. If it's overly colorful, it's probably falsely colored, but mild color variations are very much real in space (pastel colors)

It's near-infrared - the red is 752nm, the green 728nm, and the blue is 890nm (for comparison, true color would be roughly 700nm for red, 500nm for green and 400nm for blue).
It's heat vision, basically - green is hottest, followed by red and then blue.

This is neat because my father works at one of these dots you see. Though not neat because of what it means. (The one he works at is one of the tinier dots, one that says "Private Address")

Sewage Overflow During Sandy From Climate Central's Sandy-caused sewage spills interactive graphic Climate Central
You know that Hurricane Sandy knocked out power and public transportation for millions on the East Coast. But there was another important utility that suffered, too: sewage plants. More than 10.9 billion gallons of untreated and partially treated sewage flowed into East Coast waterways and city streets for weeks after Hurricane Sandy, according to a new report from Climate Central, a nonprofit organization that studies and reports on climate change.
Climate Central had some great comparisons to help you visualize that. It's equivalent to New York City's Central Park, packed 41 feet high with sewage. It's 50 times the volume of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill. I think I'm beginning to understand why my favorite Long Island beach will be closed to visitors this summer.
With global warming, researchers expect larger storms with heavier rains, like Sandy had, to happen more frequently. America's sewage plants aren't prepared, Climate Central reported.
In most cases, Sandy's storm surge either damaged sewage plants or put them out out of power for so long that they ran out of generator fuel. Either way, the incapacitated plants released untreated sewage straight into nearby waterways, which is a threat to public health and the environment. Plant operators weren't being malicious or cutting corners, Climate Central reported. They followed best practices to reduce how much sewage they had to let go, or at least disinfected the sewage before dumping it. The plants were simply overwhelmed.
If you're curious about the individual spills that Climate Central tracked, the organization put together a nice interactive graphic about it. The data come from state agencies and individual treatment plant operators.[/quote]
