Good point Gary. It's hard to tell if the cameras at the guard shack are as crude as they appear to be. With technology being the way it is today, I would ne be surprised at all to find an updated camera in that older housing, perhaps even a Thermal Imaging Device. Dedicated Satellite resources just for security seems a bit over the top, but still I wouldn't rule out the occasional peek for "calibration" purposes, or perhaps countersatellite camouflage testing.

I'm sure any informed security supervisor would have alreay looked into the latest up to date multi-spectral sensors in order to properly protect that patch of real estste. I now I would if it was me..
