If you start at about 18 seconds, it almost looks like it is on the western edge of mexico at that point. But, I don't think that is where it actually is.

Wow that is an awesome video! Kinda makes me think though. What a waste of energy illuminating all those lights at night. I assume those are street lights in cities right? At least it looks cool for any aliens watching us.

The lightning in the clouds is way cool.
