This image is was taken by the IKONOS satellite with 3.2 meter resolution on September 15th, 2001. This image is of Ground Zero in New York City following the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001. Dust and debris of the North and South Towers of the the World Trade Center can be seen through the smoke and haze as first responders tirelessly sorted through rubble. Today this area has two memorial pools and a museum to educate visitors on the impacts of the events that occurred in New York, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania.
