I recently came across this site: http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a000000...111/index.html

To quote from the site: "A seamless zoom from space to the ground, using data from Terra/MODIS, Landsat/ETM+, and IKONOS, and ending at Spaceship Earth in Epcot outside of Orlando, Florida".

Bandwidth warning! some of these files are huge!

Look carefully at the parking lot at Epcot and you will see the FIRST championship arena from the 2002 competition.

For those of you who are bandwidth limited, I cropped a TIFF still and converted to jpeg.

enjoy...
