Check out this satellite map of Dublin from 1966! Yep that's right,
on 19 February 1966, a KH-7 GAMBIT reconnaissance satellite operated by the CIA passed over Dublin. This magic window on our city just before things went international. You can zoom in to surprising detail. Go fullscreen then use the transparency slider at the bottom right so you can compare now with 66'!
KH-7s primary purpose was Cold War espionage against Soviet and Chinese nuclear and missile installations. This slice of swinging Dublin was used to calibrate. Mad what I find lying around the Dublin Time Machines magic drawers. The photo below is just a screenshot, you've to click the link

@RobLooseCannon I often wonder if this was behind unexplained deaths of men, who often never drank or smoked... every small town has histories like that

A lot of small business owners that I'm speaking to in the city centre are reporting trade being way down on what it should be.
Dublin city centre was like a ghost town at 9AM this morning. If we don't support the city, then the future is bleak. 1/2
@lrbobrien@DrCiaranMcDonn@noonofday Hi. If you had photos it would be a huge help. I could forward them on to people in the trade, and particularly in the gold recycling end of things.
@sinannf Hi.. would really appreciate a mention for the shop, Needful Things, at 3 Aungier Street. We sell a range of books, antiques, collectibles, jewellery and vinyl amongst other things! More than happy to ship, and also on Instagram and Facebook.
@dpdireland nearly an hour on hold now!!! Is there any way I can speak to a human? Even your live chat is unavailable and no reply to DM messages here!
@dpdireland I have received a message from DPD re customs duty on a package of books from UK. There is no VAT or customs duty applicable on books. Now it is saying I have refused payment and will be sent back!!
