PUSH THE THROTTLE Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) Try it out if you have a decent connection otherwise it may be a little slow. http://earth.google.com/ NOTE: not all of the maps are that great such as I can't locate my parents house but if you are near a major area it should work for you.

PUSH THE THROTTLE Posted August 12, 2005 Author Report Posted August 12, 2005 there is another one that is prety cool its a little better i think.. www.terraserver.com 404030[/snapback] I've used the terraserver before it's a better picture but not as user friendly. Check out NY city on the google one with the buildings turned on that's pretty cool. Quote
STLBILL Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 The Google Earth package used to be called Keyhole. It is named after the now de-classified spy satellite program operated by the NSA a few decades ago. Kind of makes you wonder... if they declassified this technology what did they replace it with?

All i can really think of is a real time satellite view of that selected area? Quote
Lee Posted August 15, 2005 Report Posted August 15, 2005 I really want to work for Google... they are too awesome. Gotta love the Google Hybrid maps they have online.. helps a lot when i travel out of state. Try entering a UPS package number into google's search...or a flight number... or even a vehicle's VIN #.... Quote

Cotton eyed Joe Posted August 21, 2005 Report Posted August 21, 2005 satelites that will read your news paper for you.........when its cloudy. 404094[/snapback] I read online some years ago about Keyhole, and what we see now isn't even its full capacity at all. They are only allowing so much resolution. I don't know if this is true but they said the technology from over 10 years ago they could see the ridges on the edge of a dime from they're geosyncronous orbit (22,000 miles give or take) Quote
