Google Earth

The imagery date for a given image on Google Earth is shown in lower-left of status bar.

If you don't see the Status Bar then it can be enabled in View menu by checking the item with same name.

Note on average the imagery in Google Earth is three years old.

If you change view time with 'Historical Imagery' enabled (also from View menu) then the selected time will also be displayed there. Sometimes newer imagery can be found in 'Historical Imagery'.

a border that two or more countries can't decide on. (disputed border)

Not exactly. If you tried to look at any restricted areas using Google Earth, you would see a blank image with text on it saying something like: "Satellite imagery is not available for this area."

As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, Bald Knob, Arkansas, was last updated on Google Street View in 2020. However, for the most current information, it's best to check directly on Google Maps, as updates may occur periodically.

Nope. If you enable the Shipwreck layer in Google Earth found under the top-level Ocean layer, you'll see hundreds of shipwreck icons (e.g. Titanic, U-400, etc.) but none for the Lusitania which was recorded to be sunk at 51°25′N 8°33′W.

No. The pictures that make up Google earth are only taken occasionally for each location. Therefore it is impossible to see in real time.

What can you see in the Cross-Section View that you can’t see in the Map View?

They cant.

well they can be dangerousl for alot of reasons I:E robbery plans etc.

Street view photos are updated on a continuous basis, but there is a tradeoff between adding new cities and keeping the existing street view imagery current. More new cities are added every day in addition to existing imagery being updated, but it may be several years until a given city is updated.

See related links for more details including list of cities by country where Google's fleet of Street View cars are currently driving.

"Upside down" from our current maps. That's why "Lower Egypt" is that area nearest the mouth of the Nile and "Upper Egypt" is that area up river from the mouth of the Nile. Does this answer your question?

People have found "Easter eggs" (or hidden features or messages) in Google Earth.

Flight simulator, for example, was one such "Easter egg" introduced in Google Earth v4.2 that once became known was so popular it became an official supported feature in version 4.3.

See related links below to see Google's sense of humor. Some of the Easter eggs were one time only "features" (e.g. April Fools Day hoaxes) and have since been removed. Some of the reported "Easter eggs" are simply strange but large man-made creations that can be seen from aerial or satellite imagery.

You look at it, find the specific year you want, and there should be a little bubble above or below the year telling you facts about the year.

When referring to the planets we would say on Earth,on Jupiter,on Mars e.t.c,we should only include "the" if we were saying on the planet Earth.

Google Earth has a shipwreck layer which includes the Titanic but the Olympic (the Titanic's sister ship) never sank. The Olympic had a collision with a British warship in 1911, and had to be brought back to the shipyard in Belfast to be repaired. Other than this, it had a long sailing career, until it was finally retired and scrapped in 1937.

You can, however, find the Titanic on Google Earth. See the related question.

This is probably because there haven't been a lot of pictures taken of the poles; there just isn't much to see. Also, there seems to be a problem near the poles with all of the surrounding pictures being squeezed into one spot.
