Didn't the intro to CBS' interview of Saddam say that Baghdad is larger the Los Angeles? So this is a small excerpt from the center?

Explanation of Iraq space map
About half way down on the right is a link entitled Baghdad Map. It is pretty cool and labels a lot of the stuff on that huge picture.
That thing Maroma asked about is a Military Monument

Bagdad looks like a prime opportunity for a landscape company to install the mother of all watering systems. That place looks so dry!
Sorry - I watch too much of the lifestyle channel

And just think, this is just a commercial remote sensing satellite. State of the art, though. www.spaceimaging.com
Imagine what the military satellites are capable of?!!?!?

This thread completely killed my windows 2k box at work.
Rumor has it military satellites can determine the brand of a cigarette pack on the ground.

I can see a line about "starting at $7/sq km. on one of the pages. But haven't been able to get right into the site. Been "loading application" for about 45 minutes. So have you knowledgeable geeks got a way around the loading procedure and/or the $ barrier? Or deep pockets?
