After it was sanctioned by the US government for allegedly helping Iran, a Chinese satellite company has released high-definition images of the Nvidia and Apple headquarters in California’s Silicon Valley.
They were among photos posted on social media on Monday by Changguang Satellite based in Changchun, in northeast China.

The satellite images – captured by the company’s Jilin-1 constellation – offer a detailed bird’s-eye view of the region.

They include the futuristic Endeavour and Voyager buildings where Nvidia is based in Santa Clara and the spaceship-like Apple Park in Cupertino. The red brick buildings and grounds of Santa Clara University are also seen in the photos.
