NASA World Wind Forums -> Google Launches satellite, named "gSat"

Its too late for me, but maybe not for you, between 10-11am local time, "...google.com has provided 24 hour access to nasa of their global imaging satellite, gSat.
We invite the World Wind community to participate in this great event; the gSat will be imaging the entire Earth this Friday, the first of April.

If you want to be photographed in this new dataset, the gSat's special orbit should mean that it passes over your respective time zone between 10:00am and 11:00am.

Simply go outside that hour and wave, feel free to make signs supporting World Wind or other message, but please keep things appropriate. This new set of images should be in the next major version of World Wind due in a few months. Thanks again for the community's support and interest in World Wind!


so, get out there and wave! :)
There are also some images already on the site...
w0w the detail is amazing... any privacy concerns???
