We had satellites in WWII?
Actual quote from archeology.org:
“Half the archaeological sites discovered in Britain over the last 70 years were found via aerial photography. Archaeologists continue to dig through World War II reconnaissance and recently declassified U.S. surveillance satellite photographs to uncover new ones.”
That one got by their editor, and I didn’t read it closely.
The first photo from space was taken in 1946 by the US using a souped up V2.
