Best Answer

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.

The latest (non-beta) version of Google Earth is 7.1.7.2605 released in Oct 2016. The previous stable version was 7.1.6 released in May 2016. The initial version was released in 2001. The 7.x and 6.x versions of Google Earth version include Street View, viewing Mars, Sky view, looking under water at things like the RMS Titanic, a Flight Simulator, among other useful features. Note as of Jan 2012 Street View is no longer be supported in Google Earth 5.2 or older.

Yes, you can download Google Earth for free. There is also a professional version of Google Earth called Google Earth Pro for business users. That version has some new features (e.g., better printing, advanced import support, etc.) but uses the same imagery so it's generally not worth the annual cost for the casual user.


Why did street view disappear with Google Earth 6?

Here is one of Google's announcements of ending Street View support for Google Earth versions 5.x and older. "With the most recent update to Google Earth (6.2), we are also finalizing our transition to a new method of delivering Street View imagery in Google Earth. This means, that the older versions of Google Earth (anything before 6.0) will no longer be able to access Street View. We held off making this change until now, when the vast majority of Google Earth users are on 6.0 (or later)." -- Google Jan 2012. Basically, Google decided to improve the Street View interfaces which would be implemented in the current versions of Google Earth for desktop and mobile platforms rather than keep supporting the older (less efficient) method of accessing Street View.

When will Google earth 6 be more current?

Google Earth 6 is the most current version of Google Earth. As for the satellite imagery and layers hosted by Google, the same data appears on Google Earth 5 and Google Earth 6 alike. In fact, Google Maps for the most part shows the same satellite imagery as that in Google Earth but sometimes the imagery updates for one is slightly ahead of the other. The frequency of imagery updates is answered in a related question. See related questions for details.

Where does Google Earth imagery come from?

Google gets its imagery from a variety of sources such as commercial satellite providers such as DigitalGlobe and GeoEye as well as from government and local agencies. Once the imagery is acquired by Google, it next has to be processed into the format and coordinate system of Google Earth's databases. Then it goes through a quality control process and processing system before getting distributed to the Google Earth database servers. This is one reason you usually do not find any imagery newer than about 6 months in Google Earth.


Will 'Google Earth 6' Harm your Computer?

Google Earth is a graphics intensive application. If you run Google Earth concurrently with a number of other applications that consume large amounts of memory and/or video driver resources then your computer will run slowly. In some situations running Google Earth in that scenario could lockup/freeze your computer (e.g. Blue-Screen-of-Death) but concurrently running any combination of graphics intensive applications or computer games could in fact crash a computer. Similarly, if you plugin in an air conditioner, power-saw, and HD TV all running on the same outlet in your home then likely you're going to blow a circuit. Same as running applications like Google Earth with other like applications at the same time. If running Google Earth makes things run slowly then you have the option to exit the other applications and run Google Earth alone or install more memory on the computer.

Why is there no zoom in Google Earth Street View version 6?

In the redesign of Street View in Google Earth 6.0 the zoom capability found in the previous version was removed. A number of users have asked for this feature back so stay tuned to see if it appears in the next version. Google Earth 6.2 has brought back a zoom feature in Street View using the mouse scrool-wheel to zoom in/out. Google Maps has a zoom feature in Street View as well as other features (e.g. 3D mode) not found in Google Earth.
