Thanks for sharing that, I use satellite images often for hobby research so its interesting to see a more professional side of it.

Also side question just incase you may know. Do you know anywhere where a civilian can get satellite images that would be better than what google earth currently has ? In particular the great lakes region of US.

That is a really big conference room table in the main meeting room btw lol

Sort:  

The meeting room is huge yes. It needs to be able to facilitate delegates (more than 1) from all 22 member states, other countries in optional programs, + key ESA staff at the same time :)

As for accessing satellite images, I have a section on that to end all my posts in my Beautiful Satellite Images of our Planet you won’t believe are real series. So you can see the links at the end of that article :)

You may access all images in 10meter resolution for free. There are some heavy restrictions on the use of images in resolutions high enough for people to be identified.
