<< I'd also love that 600mb pic (just installing a 120 gig and need to fill it up with something) >>


LOL! No matter how big it is, it's never enough 😉
 
did you see my post above? If it was 21000*42000 pixels, that's 882 Megapixels. Each pixel is either 3 or 4 bytes, not sure how photoshop handles it. So its either 2.5GB or 3.3GB of memory. I don't think photoshop will be up to it since no 32-bit computer can have that much data in memory at once (32bit, max of 2GB addressable). Of course there may be exceptions, but I don't think x86 is one of them. There'll have to be some utility that processes the file in smaller, even chunks, JPEG's them at max quality, and somehow joins them all together again. Viewing the files will be easily possible as long as it only loads what's in view, and doesn't try to load the entire file into mem. Dunno if that's possible with JPEG.
 
NASA is slow, you'd think that if they can put a man on the moon, they could email me a link to a picture.

I assure you that the 600mb picture does exist. It's actually 32 pictures, one of the westernehemisphere, and one of the eastern hemisphere. Combined, they're over 600mb. here's the link to where they're listed.

<< I can see the Great Wall of China..... Lemme see if I can outline it real quick in PSP....

Is this not it? >>



yes, i believe it is. >>



Nope, that's the Yellow River (Yangtzee ... or something like that ... please educate me 😉)
The great wall is up north, near that desert. And besides, it can be thousands of miles long, but it's only a couple feet wide ...

What is your point? It is well known that the Great Wall is one of a handful of man made creations visible from space......

with radar:Q😛
 
anyone who believes you can see the wall of china from space with the naked eye is freaking ignorant...

Didn't your momma teach you if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all? It is visible from low earth orbit, which technically is "space". However, yes..... you would not be able to see it from the shots presented here. They're far from low orbit shots.
