Yes but only in a watered down way.

Don't worry, it will be shorely washed away in a few years

Nice. I did exactly the same, except in my first language, to show my fiancé

Share? Even if it's not written in English, I think people here would appreciate seeing more boobies. It's quite the international community of perverts.

Fun fact FutureBrand used sat photos of the Amazon river to build the logo for the new tourism brand for Brazil

https://www.futurebrand.com/our-work/amazonia

Partnering with RAI (Integrated Amazon Routes) and Embratur (the Brazilian Agency for International Tourism Promotion), FutureBrand set out to evolve the Brazilian Legal Amazon into Amazônia: a unified, globally recognised and sustainably driven destination brand. One that could honour the distinct identities of its 28 million inhabitants while presenting a powerful, shared vision to the world and unlocking long‑term economic and cultural value.

Here's the logo with the satellite images. Each letter is in a different state for inclusivity but also because of how gigantic the river system is

And here's some illustrations

FTFY

There's nothing sustainable about large scale international tourism. Nor of Brazil's mass deforestation of Amazonia.

Can't take your dick out in space, we've gone over this.

Why not? It's survived other strong vacuums before

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 weeks ago

Is that you, Doofy?

"He already survived in the vacuum of my mom. I mean, 'My mom's vacuum.'"

You could always grab letters individually

Well that’s just neat. You can access all the “letters” available as well through this link https://science.nasa.gov/mission/landsat/outreach/your-name-in-landsat/

I don't know what compelled me. I had to.

Uncritical Support

A lot of the letters are not as clear as one would like. Guess what this one is supposed to be:

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago

That’s dancing man

[–] Baguette@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This one is hard because its using the farmland as Z, but your eyes kinda naturally look at the waterways instead

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Which is why my first thought was, "L?" because the water looks like a natural boundary. Only after looking again did I see a Z.

I think tilting it slightly straighter would've helped. Here it is tilted just 10 degrees -

Though it's still kinda 7-y. That chunk of farmland at the end makes my mind want to discard the bottom part entirely. It's neither the same color nor expected shape.

Edit: now I notice the circle above it, making a lower case "i" possible. Such fantastic ambiguity.

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah the N doesn't quite work. Maybe it's a lower case n, but that's dumb.

Its neat but I can't read most of these
