How did Leonardo da Vinci draw a satellite map more than 500 years ago?
In 1502 AD, Leonardo da Vinci arrived in the city of Imola, Italy, to work for Cesare Borgia as a military engineer. His mission was to help Borgia identify the place, but instead of drawing a map like those of that time, with artistic decorations and a side view of the city, Leonardo made a modern map, surprisingly accurate and with a top-to-bottom view of the city of Imola. The image is very similar to the one we can see today in satellite images of the old town of the city, which had a Renaissance genius who was several centuries ahead of his time, indicating a wonderful symbolic imagination or that he was something else whose secrets we do not know.
