A Chinese company reportedly created a photo with such high resolution, you can zoom from thousands of meters away to see people's facial expressions.
You might call this the pinnacle of high-resolution images.
It is the brainchild of a setup called Jinkun Tech, or Bigpixel Technology Corporation, and it was taken from atop the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai.
The photo resolution, which is the toughest part to wrap one's mind around, is reportedly 195 gigapixels.
A megapixel is one million pixels. The resolution of digital cameras and smartphones is often chopped up and measured in megapixels. For example, a 12-megapixel camera can produce images with 12 million total pixels. But, in this case, we're talking about gigapixels. One gigapixel is 1 billion pixels.
