image thumb315 Google plex as seen from space

The GeoEye satellite has brought to us an image of what Google’s complex looks like from space. Compared to the image from Google Map, I don’t see much difference save that the grass s much greener (in the GeoEye image), but it isn’t about comparing as Google uses both the satellite and ariel facilities for its Maps service. The image from the satellite uses the maximum allowed image resolution of 50 cm as the same satellite is used by the U.S for security purposes.
