Ships R Great Posted April 22, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I know CC'ers are the smartest folks around :D and somebody knows something about everything. So---can anyone tell me how to access real-time satellite photos of ships at sea. I understand that I would need a general idea of where the ship is so I can narrow down the general location to look for it. Anybody? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red knight Posted April 22, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Celebrity at Sea website is pretty good, but the Princess one often gives their (theoritical at any rate!) longitude and latitude. If you have a ships schedule you should be able to hajve a look see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ships R Great Posted April 22, 2005 Author #3 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Thanks, red knight. I'll checkt hat. What I would really like to do is zoom in on the ship from the (sky)satellite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raudacruise Posted April 22, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Unless you work at the CIA or NRO you aren't going to be able to access realtime satellite imagery. Google now offers images of specific locations (I believe limited to addresses in the US) but the images are 3-6 months old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha ha, yes this question gave me quite a chuckle... :D There are probably a few other places as well, but you are literally starting to get into the territory of "I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!"

Ships R Great Posted April 23, 2005 Author #8 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Well, I guess I'll deep six that idea---no pun intended. It would have been fun to see my favorite ship at sea, from above, tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
