It would be super cool if you could buy non-orthorectified satellite imagery. Orthorectification and launch pads don't get along.
🚀 Latest view of SpaceX’s LC-39A at @NASAKennedy Visible progress on the Starship launch pad since May. 🛰️ Captured mid-July 2025.
🔄 One month later here’s how things have changed. We’ve revisited SpaceX’s LC-39A and Roberts Road sites at @NASAKennedy. 🚀 New construction progress is clearly visible in both areas. 🛰️ Satellite imagery update, mid-May 2025. Tracking development as it happens.
This was taken 47 years ago yesterday. Still one of my favourite satellite images ever.
You've seen high off-nadir satellite images with modern satellites, but how about from 1978? Check out this stunning off-angle photograph of the Space Coast taken by a KH-9 spy satellite. NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building and many other structures are clearly visible.
As NOAA continues flying incredibly important aerial imagery missions over Texas following recent devastating floods, one of their flights on July 19 captured @Firefly_Space's growing facility at Briggs, Texas. Screenshots from the map on @Soar_Earth: soar.earth/maps/136064?ba…

On this day in 1963, the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) launched the first GAMBIT-1 photoreconnaissance satellite. It was designed to take photographs at a higher ground resolution than other photoreconnaissance satellites. Read the blog: s.si.edu/3NUSAvU
Wild that it's mid-2025 and not every earth observation company has open data
Thanks to @Maxar for another look at the #TexasFloods. We believe this data should be viewed by everyone, so again, we’ve added it to Soar to be easy to explore. Explore the full map: soar.earth/maps/texas-flo… Here’s some closer looks… 🧵 [1/4]
Incredible.
Outrageous images of China's Shijian-26, an apparent new-gen Earth observation satellite, from Maxar. SSD of 1.9 cm. linkedin.com/posts/susanne-…
The data team at Soar will be doing our best to keep Maxar's open data flowing to the public in an easy to access manner during these heartbreaking events.
The recent #TexasFloods have been devastating. Thanks to new satellite imagery from @Maxar , we now have a clearer view of some of the damage. However, these files can be hard to access for most people, with complex tools and file types. We believe this data should be viewed by…
A recent check-in on China's Wenchang Space Launch Site using an @umbraspace SAR satellite on July 5 @ 03:40:48 UTC. Full capture on @Soar_Earth: soar.earth/maps/135878?ba…
Christopher Nolan: I shoot IMAX KH-9 engineers: That's cute
I've just posted a quick monthly update to my paid Patreon supporters who help me make satellite imagery past & present as accessible as possible: patreon.com/posts/july-202… We have a long way to go, but getting started is the most important part.
