How are there still islands that we haven’t discovered/explore despite the fact that the satellites in space have been taking constant photos of the earth?

Answer 1

There aren’t, every island and piece of land was mapped. There are a handful of islands that have hostile natives that essentially have travel bans both to protect the natives and the would be explorers.

Some more have similar bans due to them being nature reserves but they still have been explored.

But there are probably still many islands that no human has set foot (or at least documented setting foot on) on simply because they are not interesting.

There is no point to explore every island in an archipelago of 50,000 islands in the Pacific or visit every bird shit island in the Atlantic.
