    The telescopes on some commercial surveillance satellites can resolve objects on the ground as small as 91 cm across (see Google Earth), and the telescopes on military surveillance satellites reportedly can resolve objects as small as 14 cm across. Assume first that object resolution is determined entirely by Rayleigh's criterion and is not degraded by turbulence in the atmosphere. Also assume that the satellites are at a typical altitude of 403 km and that the wavelength of visible light is...
