Aerial View Maps

Anyone know a good website for free satellite images?

I need some images for a independent study and was wondering if there was any good, free images so I would not have to pay for anything

9. Nasa has loads of free satellitte images. But what resolution do you need? Because different sttellites take immages at different resolutions for different reasons. Such as the thematic mapper images at a 30M resolution or quickbird at 1.5 meter
