If you can get that close with google... think what kind of spy sat technology the goverment has... they could probably see a pimple on your ass....
 
Keyhole is frigin awesome. I got Keyhole II, and sent my mom pics of her home (witch happens to be a Peterbuilt rig just outside of Niack, NewYork
 
Cool, I just installed it....now does anyone know how often new pictures are taken? Or is it real-time???? (which I highly doubt...)
 
Ya, I realized that after using it for a while....does anyone know of a program that you have to pay for (or not pay for) that gives you real-time images?
 
lol i looked up the sony building in japan...does that make me a nerd or something? LOL
 
Not bad.
So much for what I was doing.
That has me hooked.
 
can it let you look up Area 51?

my dad said the government is able to see the lable on a golf ball on a golf course with their cameras.

Ya, you can I was looking it up earlier. Type in las vegas, let it go to there, then zoom out quite a bit, and navigate up northeast a little bit.

EDIT: ok, here's the coordinates: 37*14'03.80'' N 115*48'29.04 W And you can zoom in quite a bit before it gets too blury.

Ok, here's Area 51 (you can still zoom in quite a bit more)

And here's where S4 supposedly is according to Bob Lazar's coordinates, but I recently read an article stating how he was full of poop, but anyway, here you go:

On S4, I couldn't zoom in anymore w/o it getting too blury

Here's a close-up of a plane beeing taxied out onto the A51 run-way

Also, am I the only one who has noticed the odd markings/shapes in the shade of the hangar?

yeah it's called BUY NASA!! lol....the satellites are not easily moved guys...it takes a while for them to be in position to snap these photos.....I love seeing the movies where the police can just log onto a sattelite and zoom in on some petty drug dealers.....that just cost 2 million to see a crack deal....
 
Well, ok, doesn't have to be real-time, but more like where I can get a pic of a certain date/time?
