camera. how many miles above earth is it? and in addition, how man years are they up there for? -- are all the images from one camera? >> this is hike a speed round with only one person asking. first question. oh, wait. does it orbit at the same speed as the earth's rotation? do different cameras cover different cities? and why can't they get sharp images with local cameras if they can with satellites i can't remember the first question. >> are they all one camera? >> thank you very much. are they all one camera? no, they are not. we have several satellites that are orbiting the earth taking pictures of weather. local hi here in north america, we have three. we have goes east, goes west and some polar orbiting satellites as well. so some go this way. they are stationary so they are right above us. they orbit at the speed of earth and others orbit up and around the polar regions, around and around. make sense? >> sure. >> taking all kind of picture. now many miles above earth is it. 22,240. it is exact because they had to figure out exactly how high to park it to get it to orbit as the same speed of earth. >> an exact science. >> i have your prompter in the right place. >> how many years are the satellites up there. we are having issues right now. you might have heard noaa is trying to address the problem of aging satellites. they typically last about 20 jurors. >> they fall down unceremoniously. >> they are starting to age and we need some new ones. >> does it essential will you orbit at exactly the same speed as the earth in. >> we just we ared that one. are they over different cities. they are over different geographic areas and they overlap. both goes east wind goes west will capture the areas. she wants to know why satellite can get sharp images but security cameras can't. that is a great question. the security cameras can get the good images but it is expensive. you need high-end cameras to get the really sharp pictures. unless you have a bank roll like the federal government you might not be able to afford the sharp pictures in your security camera at home. >> what is really niece is the technology and how can you zoom in so close to certain things. we go on to the google earth with the ipad. you tax a tour. you can see the great wall of china. >> i was sitting in my house and you could see my tulips blooming. >> we go and -- we
