Google Earth has a flight simulator but no "rocket mode". You can, however, change Earth to Mars, Moon, or a Sky mode to see other planets. The flight simulator still works on Mars and the Moon which is fun to try, but it is disabled in Sky mode.

Google Earth has a Mars planet mode, but Google Maps does not have such a feature. You need to download Google Earth to explorer Mars in 3-D with high-resolution imagery.
The Halo ring is from a video game you retards.
Earth view is a feature in Google Maps (available since 2010) that allows you to see the same high-resolution imagery, terrain, and 3D buildings that are available in the desktop version of Google Earth.Earth view mode in Google Maps is only available to those that have installed Google Earth. It uses the Google Earth plugin in your web browser.

As of Google Earth v5.0, you can see the surface of Mars and the Moon. It includes "Street View"-like imagery taken from lunar and Martian missions as well as videos from related landings. Change planet mode in the View menu under the Explore option or from a planet icon in the toolbar. Also, in Google Earth's Sky mode you can see photos of galaxies and stars from various astronomy databases.
There are a number of causes of graphical issues in Google Earth. In some cases you just need to clear your local cache and restart Google Earth. Another workaround to switch from DirectX to OpenGL Mode (or vice versa) and/or try running in safe mode. You may have to reinstall Google Earth or get the latest version.

The Sky mode is Google Earth has all the planets of our Solar System and many galaxies. Enter Sky Mode in the View/Explorer menu then pick Sky. You can enter 'Saturn' into the Search text box. More impressive is the Mars and Moon mode where you can navigate a 3-D planet or moon and see "StreetView"-like imagery where available.
Google Maps doesn't display the imagery dates, but Google Earth does. That's Google Earth the desktop application not the 'Earth' mode found in Google Maps. Since both use the same imagery database you only need to visit the same area in Google Earth and enable the 'Status Bar' in View menu to show the approximate imagery date in lower-left corner of the screen.
If there are walking signs enabled then you probably have a NetworkLink in your saved places enabled. The NetworkLinks doesn't know the difference between Earth mode or Mars mode so best to turn off your saved places.
