Google Maps Captures Plane in Flight Over
Chicago
by Mike Richard
What happens when a plane flies through a
Google Maps satellite photo? http://www.theatlantic.com/ has the answer:
http://www.geekosystem.com/ notes that “the rainbow effect
could have been caused by a satellite imaging process that consisted of
“several colored exposures [taken] over a few seconds and then combined”;
failing that, unicorn magic.”[/size][/b]

A jet flying at 200 mph would travel nearly 300 feet in one second. The elapsed
time between the apparently separate color exposures would have to be in
milliseconds.
