Citizens of the Russian town of Chelyabinsk recently got together to make a giant smiley face. They timed it for when the Google satellite was set to pass by, so their smiley will appear on Google's satellite images.
How do you even find out satellite timetables? Whom do you need to speak with? I am desperate to know so I can do something similar; but being Cowbag, however, it's safe to say that my mass image will be a lot more messed up than this happy one.
