Travelling by satellite - Japan from sky

Post by Fanfan »

I was quite astonished by the world wind nasa project :
http://worldwind.arc.nasa.gov/

but there is another little program that should interest you : google earth
http://earth.google.com/
It is smaller, faster, no a lot of requirements (and soon available for mac users), USA is well covered, but have a look to the Imperial Palace in Tokyo…

you will see the world as astronauts or bird, and if you want to look at the different travels made by your favourite bunny, it should interest you.
