We're under atack

I just saw this stunning image on the Associated Press. I first saw it on a sister newspaper's Web site and couldn't see the details very well.
What you're looking at is an artist's rendering of the way the Earth is seen from space, complete with satellites drawn from information obtained from, well, satellite photos of the planet.
Let's say you're an alien and you're approaching Earth to take it over. Wouldn't you start to pull in the drive and then see all those satellites and say, "Hey, Nezbot, let's just go on to the next stop. This one's already got an infestation."
As Louis Armstrong says, "Whada wuunderfuuul world!"
