Hoi Chummers,

just read on /. the US legislature wants to restrict access to satellite
pictures and stumble across a source which might come handy for you GMs
out there:

Just take a look at <http://www.erdsicht.de/>;, it's a link collection
to different services providing free satellite- and aerial pictures.

Well, it's a little bit Germany-centered but International gives you
links to other regions as well.

Have fun,

Mick

I love satellite photos - they are awesome for atmosphere for a run. Show
them a picture of a facility from the sky, and they jump all over it,
drooling in anticipation...

Players are so funny sometimes.

Yupp, they are. And all that planning that follows once you throw
something that even looks like a handout at them.
Of course, no plan survives the contact with the GM.
