Not for the public man. Just think about it for a second. If I wanted to look at australia, and you wanted to look at the U.S. how would the satelite be able to show both of us those places live. Another thing, you can't really control where the satelite is, so even if you had your own satelite and you wanted live pictures of the U.S. and the satelite was over China, you can't just hit a button and make it fly on over there (or at least to my knowledge; anyone who knows otherwise, please tell me if I'm wrong) you would have to wait until the orbit went over the U.S.

Yea I use World Wind too. I like it a lot. First of because it's free
One question though, and does anyone know how to fix this, but only the U.S. works when zooming in to see cities. Whenever I try zooming in to see some place in Africa or wherever, no cities come up.

I think it is because of server problems. It says so on the NASA website. They are trying to find a solution to the problem so that WW will download images for other parts of the world too.

Does anyone know if World Wind is real time? Or does it display images from a previous date? I'm thinking back to August when we had an object in the sky over Minneapolis. It was in the sky all day. Would World Wind have been able to focus in on something like that?

Oops - sorry, I see there is a thread on World Wind.....

Keyhole

There is another reason It's called Keyhole...

It has to do with the motorized movement of the Dishes on the ground.

When a bird is making a 90degree pass, the Dish starts looking at one horizon,
follows the bird all the way up to 90 degrees, then TURNS, like turning a key, which then allows it to then follow the bird down to the opposite horizon..
A KEYHOLE PASS...is what we used to call it...

There was always some concern over "cable wrap" when this happened..
You don't the Dishes to turn the same way more than once, or...you stand a chance of disconnection, or breaking the cables...


Just thought you might like to know....CARRY ON!

Its acutally one of their pre-loaded selections. You can just click on it from the menu and it takes you right there.

Is it just me or did the image look really washed out and fuzzy?

Can anyone post some of these images?

I keyed in 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and predictably enough, the roof of the white house and executive buildings were masked out.

Obviously to prevent anyone from checking out the security arrangements.

Lets keep track here folks.

keyhole software
chipping technology
antennaes on retail products
2000 cameras in Chicago
cellular phone tracking
all that is left is the hidden camera in the tv that is always on.

anything sound familiar?

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, just had something stuck in my throat
