19°00'11.32" 12°53'27.37"


Any idea why, can't believe the clarity..... let the conspiracy theories begin.

Holy crap. I think that's the first human I've seen on Google Earth...of course, considering all the documentation National Geographic (who's sponsored a lot of links on that particular area of the globe) has done on Africa, it's possible that this is not a satellite photo, but a National Geographic aerial photo superimposed over its exact GPS location.

Africa has a ****load of those megaflyover images, I've found a fair few humans in them.

[Bugalugs]

theres humans all over New York City, mostly you can make them out by their shadow, sometimes you can tell what colour clothes they are wearing

Direct link?

[TallGuy]

Direct link? Just copy and past the coordinates in the Google Earth search bar....

Ok, downloaded the software.. Didn't recall you had to do that before

Thanks GrimReaper... Amazing stuff

MODS:
can we start a Google Earth sticky thread so that there isn't a new one every few hours.
thanks.

[Hellfish]

I second that, for what it's worth.

[jetsetter]

I think I solved the mystery.

If you click the blue "Wildlife Conservation Society" button it opend the NG page that describes what the images are all about.

Why can't we get "National Geographic" to map out Western Pakistan like that. They can then have all their subscribers try to find Bin Ladin.

Talk about a lot of eyes on target....i like it.

[Opening Batsman]

Except most of these photos are years old. I think with the versions you have to pay for you can get up to date ones.

At least to get some people familiar with the surroundings.

yeah, the pic of my house shows the guy that used to live there before me even before they built the whole new development behind the house.
