why can't we focus one of them on this anomaly for long enough to get a really good picture taken?

You can order up an Ikonos image of anything you want. You just have to pay for it... It isn't cheap. And governments have more pressing interests.

Yep. According to what I have heard, they've already requested the pics from Ikonos, but I don't know what they actually showed.
