Amazing free download from NASA

It is like owning a Globe on Steriods

Thanks! This is when cable comes in handy...its' 253 MB. Not sure about free since NASA is supported by tax $ If you have WinXP you might want to set a Restore Point.

I just downloaded it and it seems pretty lame. However I could just be retarded. All it's doing for me is showing a globe that I can spin. I can't zoom in or anything.

 

[Glavinsolo]

Use the scroll on your mouse to zoom. Hold right click and turn the globe. You can also do a search for anywhere in the world and it will locate it. Give lat and long exactly. You can also download animations to run so you can see what the 1991 china dust bowl looked like or the northern lights. Very cool indeed

 

[dnuggett]
