We ’ve seen how footage like this makesthe world take care like a TV secret plan , or a Micro Machines playset ! It ’s sped up of form , but the aeroplane flying across the landscape painting is almost weird enough to look phony . Luckily , a commenter on the Vimeo varlet points out some of what is going on with the sheet ’s trajectory . It has to do with the motion of the satellite . If you focus on the steer of the building , the plane ’s path make more sense .
The clipping was post bySkybox Imaging , a companionship providing planet HD video of any point on land . It ’s not available freely like Google Maps , but clips like this are cool enough to make you wish it were . Maybe one day ! [ The Atlantic ]
