I'm going to take a looksy at some American military installations, I love this program, with it we can see if a country is gonna attack another country. Good camoflage should make it tougher for g.e to work but then again its hard to hide track marks in mud.

Actually, most of the sensitive areas on those bases have been taken out are considered classified. If you want to see a really cool satellite image program, look for Hawk Eye software, but its only allowed to be distributed to military members. I managed to get a copy out of ROTC.

It would make a difference if it were all live. It has very little intel value otherwise.

Actually, most of the satellite pics are several year old. It can give you a good reference when some disaster or international incident is going on, but not much else except a toy at this point.

I've actually worked with them in trying to locate missing children in wilderness areas and that's where they told me about the current pictures.

Ever since I found out about this program, I have such an urge to run out onto the roof of a big building and give the finger to the sky. Once a day.

Want to see the Pentagon? It's right there. Area 51? No prob. The White House? Capitol Hill? You can almost reach out and touch them.

Want to see where Dick Cheney lives? The Vice Presidential Residence (Number One Observatory Circle)? Blotted out.

Talk about the "undisclosed location".
