DigitalGlobe that took the images and found the debris,
Im amazed that they don't have better satellite images that can zoom in and make a definitive call on what it is.
For fricks sake, Google maps can zoom in and see down to what type of shoes someone is wearing.

CIA undoubtedly can but won't reveal they can.
I had a buddy that worked for defense department in Hawaii as an analyst. Weird as frick, but told me about the satellites they used. He could zoom in and see what your hat said in basically HD, but the satellites are in orbit so he can't just pick and choose what to look at 100% of the time.

Just heard on CNN radio that they do have the capability. They're not allowed by US law to release anything of higher resolution.

The image was taken days ago. They don't know exactly where it is this instant to zoom in on it.

not in real time
the government has live satellites that can do that, but they're in orbit so they have to wait until it's above what they're looking at.

Have you seen the new google maps with the 3-d rendering?
My image is clear. I can make out my cars in the back driveway, and that I was moving stuff on a trailer in the back.
Pretty clear.
