In the April 2001 "Science Scoops," we reported that soon it will be possible for Internet users to control satellites to image objects in space or their favorite places on earth. We asked readers to let us know what they would choose for these satellites to photograph. Paul Askins of Clearwater, Florida, wrote: I think it would be neat to have the new satellite photograph the Sears Tower, the Hoover Dam, the Eiffel Tower in Paris the Great Wall of China, and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Great choices, Paul.
