This Dec. 4, 2012 satellite image taken by GeoEye and annotated and distributed by North Korea Tech and 38 North shows the Sohae launching station in Tongchang-ri, North Korea. New satellite images show that heavy snowfall may have slowed North Korean rocket launch preparations but that Pyongyang could still be ready for liftoff starting Monday, Dec. 10. This image was shared with the AP by the 38 North and North Korea Tech websites, which collaborate on analysis of the satellite imagery.
