An updated version of this page (more interesting) is found here...Sahara vegetation watch 2002
The photo below shows the line of vegetation separating the Sahara desert from the vegetation to the South. If you look at Spain or south of the Sahara you will notice that where vegetation is present, the visible satellite imagery shows a dark color, and this can be compared with the bright lighter color of the barren desert. I am posting this photo as a reference photo to compare with developments on the Sahara over the course of the summer of 2001 (Eden doesn't grow in a day! This particular prophecy will take time to fulfill, but as the Isaiah prophets said of the return of Eden, 'even now it will begin, will you not perceive it?')
Below this reference photo are pictures of evening cloud cover each night over the desert. What happens is that water vapor rises in the heat of the day and then in the coolness of the evening clouds form. Usually the clouds become the largest around midnight but this can only be observed in the infrared. Different areas of the desert are getting precipitation day after day, and in time this will show in the visible spectrum as increased darkening of the Garden of Eden in the Sahara desert as vegetation begins to grow. I plan to document this process on this site, beginning with this reference photo and then the beautiful side lit shots of the early evening cloud cover below to give you an idea of the random pattern that is emerging.
