WV-1 is panchromatic only and aimed at the defence market so don't expect to see too much imagery on Google Earth (No, it's not Google's satellite). At best it should free up QuickBird for more civilian work]]>Sep 17th 2007 8:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/Who cares if the satellite can't capture infra-red or ultra-violet or other spectrums ?
It's enough that it captures the visible light spectrum.]]>Sep 17th 2007 9:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/
WorldView-1 has only panchromatic, at 50 cm, no colour. WorldView-2 will be multi-spectral. There is an introduction to high-res. satellite imagery here: http://www.eurimage.com/faq/faq.html.]]>Sep 17th 2007 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/Sep 17th 2007 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/17/google-earth-gets-assisted-by-new-satellite/

"At 08:00" -- What time zone? Is that UTC? PDT?

Also, if you live in Los Angeles, drive up to Vandenberg to see the launch live from just a few miles. Not nearly as impressive as watching the Space Shuttle launch, but damn impressive still.
