Canon made a site that lets you ‘take photos’ from a real satellite – Engadget
Rather than releasing any new cameras for CES 2021, Canon is doing something different: Letting you take pictures from space.
The interactive demo allows you take images from multiple locations, with each shot showing the location and altitude of the image. However, it uses pre-captured imagery, so you’re not actually grabbing live or unique photos. If it was live, CE-SAT-1 would be zipping around the Earth at nearly 17,000 miles per hour, circling the globe in just over an hour and half. The demonstration does give you a feel for the satellite’s capabilities and resolution, however.
The experience is narrated by astronaut…
