[Nathan Wajsman]

Impressive, although I have never really warmed to the Google Earth application (as opposed to Google maps and Streetview on the web).

Cheers,
Nathan

It is a big-screen (actually five screens) glorified Google Earth display which can not only show you our planet, but all of the Solar System. It is controlled by a few pushbuttons for choosing, e.g. the earth, and a joy stick for navigation. It is damn tricky to work, but you can see the globe, navigate to any area above it, Zoom down, and at a sufficient level of detail, go into Street View. If they’ve shot that street, you can see your house.
