Satellite imagery company GeoEye has released a photo of what it says is
the controversial and underground Iranian uranium enrichment site that
came to light last week.

The photo, taken Saturday, shows the facility at a military site about
20 miles north-northeast of Qum and 100 miles southwest of Tehran,
GeoEye said. An analysis of the photo by IHS Jane's, a defense
intelligence consulting firm, said the facility has a primary and
several auxiliary entrances, ventilation shafts, a surface-to-air
missile site, and quarry and construction equipment.

See the shots below for a view of what the companies say are the main
and auxiliary entrances, the ventilation shafts, and an overall view.
