The Earth At Night (Beta Temporarily Closed)

Welcome, frustrated would-be planet surfer.

We appreciate your interest in accessing 3D geospatial information, but due to the technical limitations of this beta launch, Google Earth has been forced to take a brief breather. Please check back with us soon.

Thanks,

The Google Earth Team

Uploaded view of New York with the 3D buildings turned on. You can rotate, zoom in/out, change the level of tilt ... amazing software

10Mb

The resolution for most of the UK isn't that great; for example, this is Chester from 12,903 feet, but the way it zooms out, pans across and zooms in on your new destination is very cool

This is New York from 12,607 feet:
