I want to see what it would be like, I'm curious, and I want to see the tiny cars. The Yahoo! Satellite isn't live, just a photograph.

Not unless you really get someone at the National Reconnisance Office to be exceptionally curious about your daily activities. but it wouldn't be a "live" shot all the time, just a live shot for about 15 minutes recurring every 70 minutes or so.

It's virtually certain that we have festive satelites which can track or view live situations from space via thermal imaging or infra-red but that we don't use the technology unless we REALLY want to peek over someone's back.

As early as the 70's it was commonly "known" that the US and USSR had satelites which could read a book with pages open to the sky, from space.

Lets put it this way, the US has had satelite imaging technology at least as good as Google Maps for 50 years, How much more advanced do you suspect they might be when everyone including any potential terrorist can just Google almost any place on Earth, and even other planets - (Google Moon/Google Mars).

The movie Patriot Games shows some showed a very probably very realistic scene where a satelite flyby was retasked and co-incided with an SAS attack, I figure that since Tom Clancy kept getting in trouble for putting "classified" stuff into his novels, and that movie is based on a book almost 20 years old, it's probably old hat compared to what they can do today.

Ya, you can do the whole google earth thing, but i don't think that there is a way to see yourself live on satellite broadcast...i think it would be like classified or something for the government and all.

No. You don't have access to military satellites, and I really don't want any other satellites looking at me all the time.

There are no live pictures. Not even the CIA can do that. Trust me.
