TOKYO -- A microsatellite operated by Japanese textile maker Seiren has successfully photographed the Earth's surface in detail, according to the company, which says the technology has potential for environmental applications.
In January, Seiren launched the FUSION-1 satellite, which measures only about 30-centimeters long and 10-cm wide and deep.
