May I ask you to show me how to get that free access to terraserver then? As I said, up until a few months ago, I could freely access any region on earth and they'd show very recent images. But now when i hit "search" i get thrown to a "sign up for paid membership" screen.

Part of the sky west of China will be closed on September 19th between 00:50 and 03:10 UTC for unknown reasons. It includes a prohibited overflight zone that is nearly 1500 km long and 100 km wide. Boost-Glide, ballistic missile, or ...?
