Satellite imagery disappeared #2510

Not a bug exactly but the lack of satellite imagery as a base map is extremely annoying. Can't find mention on it on any online forums. What is the reason for removing satellite imagery from Kepler? Will it be reinstated?

+1, a feasible workaround will be very useful to the users!

I've got the workaround! You can use Visual Studio Code (offline) which still has the satellite imagery and a better version of the Voyager maps currently on online Kepler. Somebody helped me set it up so I can't remember the exact steps but it only took about five minutes. I post the steps here later.
