Cool Google Maps Find

Check this ultra close picture taken from space. It was taken some where in Chad. You can see a well, livestock, a couple of camels, and some people. Some of those people seem to be looking up, anyone else get the same feeling? .:.Link.:. (move torwards southeast, you can see 4 people looking up at the sky)

      That is so totally amazing. The resolution is so fine you can see the camel’s footprints! I don’t see any layers like that in Kuwait, yet. Holy Smokes, BiG Brother really can see us!

      Hate to burst your bubble here people…

      This image was NOT taken from space by a satellite but from a plane as part of the african fly over day. That’s why you can zoom in so far. That is why the people are looking up, theyre looking at the plane as it flew over head, not randomly looking into space!

      there’s hundreds of other photos in africa that are this high res and they were all taken as the plane flew around. If you zoom out a bit and follow the trail of photos you can see the route the plane took as it flew.
