Not sure if anybody else has stumbled on this program or not, but it............ROCKS!!!! This has got to be one of the coolest programs ever. You can download it free from www.earth.google.com , but your gonna need a pretty fast internet connection to be able to use it. What a way to sight see!

I can see mine too! I wish these were more up-to-date instead of patched together from sattalite and airplane pictures taken over the past three years.

You do know these aren't live sattalite feeds right? The landscape that isn't computer renderd is basically a huge quilt of airplane/stattalie photos patched toghether over the past 3 years.

1. When were these pictures taken? How often are they updated?

Our images are photographs taken by satellites and aircraft sometime in the last three years. The images in Google Earth are updated on a rolling basis.

Wow, that's cool, that's extremely cool.

Sure to become the favored software of those apsiring for global domination and invading alien forces everywhere. Let's hope alien technology uses something akin to dial-up.

There is the coord's for a nuclear testing grounds. Crazy to look at for sure. Slightly south of those coord's is a bunch of craters from what looks to be all the underground tests that have been done over the years. Interesting that it is so close to the Area 51 site. Things that make you go Hmmmmmm. :confused:
