I was exploring the country using Google Earth recently and it is truly mind-blowing how accurate and efficient the maps and landscapes are. Users can simply type in an address or zoom in on certain geographical features and the app simply clarifies the image for the viewer. Remote sensing was utilized in creating this technology. This also remained me the Corona, the first satellite system, since advanced satellite systems were used in creating Google Earth.
I find this interesting because something similar has happened to me recently. Instead of me using Google Earth, one of my friends who had never been to my house before Google Earthed my house to see it. It was strange how much information she received about me just based on a picture of my house. The next day at class she asked me about vehicles that were in my driveway and my backyard / side yard and what was in it. It was just really interesting that a picture taken from a satellite can reveal so much about a person's living situation without showing any history behind that person.
