Since then, the technology has only gotten better. The images from some of the UAVs we are getting now is absolutely insane.


I have heard people say that surveillance technology is good enough now that it is possible to read automobile license plates from orbiting satellites.

Picture a Hubble Telescope in orbit, pointed at the earth.
That's what they were using 20 years ago..
