Sun must be hitting a big mirror at the right angle, or some such.

OR maybe that's what they do to censor out topless suntanners.

Sorry, I'm not allowed to tell you what it is but involves a transdimensional portal, hot lesbians and a daffodil.

It's probably just some reflective thing that reflected sunlight into the satellite lens.

Very strange though

I proly should have mentioned this earlier, but its not actually in Amsterdam, I was just trying to find it again and I remembered it was near Amsterdam and so thats what I looked up, its in a town outside Amsterdam,

I put my money on an error in picture transmission. If it was reflection the inside would be white, but it looks more like a chunk of a small street.



Or maybe some kid was playing with his fission thingy (http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061119/NEWS03/611190639), and something went awry.
