High-Res Satellite Images of Haiti from Space

Found satellite images of Haiti after the earthquake through Gizmodo.  Even with all the technology we have, there is still a lot of work to do.  Even with various forms of powers of prediction, we still can’t prevent much.

By now you would’ve heard about the earthquake which left Haiti devastated on Tuesday, leaving thousands dead and even more injured. These high-res satellite photos show the damage the earthquake, measuring 7.3, had on the capital Port-au-Prince.

The photos were taken by the GeoEye-1 satellite which has a resolution of 0.5 meters per pixel, from 423 miles in space, on the morning of January 13th. [GeoEye Satellite Images via Discovery News via Reillymj on Twitter]
