The Iranian Bomb: We're Watching You and Now You Know It

Smarter than I thought, huh?

The Jerusalem Post has a story today about EROS-B, a satellite designed, among other things, to track the Iranian nuclear national suicide machine in progress. The eye in the sky was launched from Russia the other day.

EROS-B has an advertised resolution capability of about 27-1/2 inches, and it can also side scann 310 miles to either side of its path.

In view of the role that Russia is playing in trying to mediate a resolution to the Iranian penchant for self destructive hubris, it's comforting to know that they're also willing to make sure that the people most likely on the receiving end have a birds eye view of what's going on in Iran.
