edit: just noticed Charleroi, Koksijde & Liège can be seen too in clearer pictures...

Also Koksijde is now also visible in detail! Charleroi, Liege and Kleine Brogel were already longer visible in detail.

Couldn't find the bomb though! ;-)

It was about time. :D I like visiting airports with Google Earth. On the Google Earth forums, I added a placemark about the satellite: http://tinyurl.com/f7n7u
I hope the info is correct. :lol:

When I checked though I noticed that not much had changed since I last visited the world through this excellent piece of software! The noticable line cutting BRU in half due to different resolution was there 2 weeks ago!

Dunno maybe I'm wrong! :?

but what is this, a reflection, censorship or secret messages to visitors from Mars?
very exact:
50°36'36.05''
5°30'52.52''
city center of Seraing, just market day. (Belgium>Liege>Seraing>market square)
a very strange spot, looks like it has been erased.
just next to the roundabound. Look and you understand my worries.

I think it's censorship. I dunno what they would want to censor tough.

Could it be the reflection of a glass building? Who's from Seraing?

I think it can be a glitch in the picture, you have it from time to time on Google earth, or a reflection...

I remember that in the beginning of G.E. the US capitol and the White House where made blurry, but that one was lifted after some time. So I suppose if it's okay to show those two buildings, nobody would mind about showing Seraing ;)
