This is reported by NASA.

According to the scientists, the red areas are designated, the temperature of which is above average, the blue - below. White indicates places where the temperature is normal.

Also, observations were collected by a spectroradiometer with ultrasonic resonance imaging (MODIS) on a NASA satellite. Scientists note that the device collects data on the temperature of the earth's surface, rather than air. Therefore, on the map in the form of hot spots, developed urban areas can be displayed, which are usually hot in the daytime than surrounding natural ecosystems or agricultural lands.

"Warm anomalies that persist across much of the globe over the years can be signs of global warming," scientists added..

By the way, the latest received data are dated February 2017.

Recall, as previously reported, "URA-Inform," the National Aeronautics and Space Administration presented to the public a unique photo that shows the galaxy ESO 580-49, which is in the constellation of weights. The corresponding image taken with the help of the Hubble orbital telescope.
