Will there be satellites that will be able to view planets surface? And look for life?

I think between you and Joykler, there are 10 pointless topics in this sub-forum. Sorry if I sound rude, but you aren't really helping.

They were stuff we've already discussed, but apparently people still wanted to talk about it.

Yes, but Taco has seven, so Mackeroth is completely correct.

Well, they did spark quite a bit of discussion. Nothing ever gets completely decided around here...

Well, just to answer the topic:
I think sattelites are planned and it should be possible to use a GPS as far as I know.
Scanning for life forms will propably be done with a spaceship.
Questions answered? Good.
Now move on and leave this thread for death or derailment.

Or not! :D

Here's a good one to think about, space gps stuff? Right, if anyone's played Star Trek Online, they'll know what a brilliant (almost) space travel (Warp Hub) Map they have. What I want to know is, will the map be divided into sectors, not where each one loads separately, for easier navigation? What I mean is so that you can remember where sectors of space are comparative to one another and use that as a point of reference to get to your destination? I think it would make for a much easier travel system.

:( I still LOVE that game, seeing as it's a ftp-ptw. I haven't spent any real money on it though.
