[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 981950, member: 325666"] As far as I can tell ...M2 takes sequential image strips as it passes over specific parts of the Earth ... So technically one _could_ receive an image of Greenland as it passes over and images it ...IF...you lived in Greenland ..OR if you could still receive a locked transmission ...which might be possible from the UK ...with a highly directional antenna ...with a tracking system ..and possibly some amplification ... ..but keep in mind the nature of the beast ... Like a Geo satellite ..you have to be in footprint (which is smaller and tighter as it isnt so high above the earth) ... ..and it is a moving moving object ..... ..and once it drops below your visible horizon ...becomes impossible .. ..and transmits a weaker signal.. You get the idea.. [/QUOTE]
