Domthedude001 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2005 That was pretty cool, there is so much detail too , I guess the moon is realy cheese , whats next though, they have google earth and google moon, maby google mars? 166368[/snapback] Google Mars? Lol, it would take Google a lot longer to make that then Google Earth... They would have to send a lot of satalites into space and take pictures all over mars..... That would be really annoying for Gootle They will hopefully come out with it somewhere around 2012 tho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bjrn 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2005 This fits with the joke Google did on April Fools Day a few years ago, offering jobs on the moon for their Lunar Project. https://www.google.com/jobs/lunar_job.html 164092[/snapback] Hehe. That's a good one. I hadn't seen that one before. My favourite joke from Google is still the Google PigeonRank page, where they tell how they use pigeons to rank pages. Hilarious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pentiumas 0 Report post Posted August 11, 2005 The page is cool... You can see the surface of the moon and where the first landings on the moon where placed... It also has an alternative earth.google.com You can download a free version of program "Google Earth" there which will show you the view of earth... You can also zoom enough to see cities Check it out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shigajet 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 Cheese!! Gotta love their little jokes when they celebrate the lauch of a new product. I still remember the "infinite" space for Gmail's first anniversary celebration. Anyway, a great bit of diversion, but Google Earth is more impressive.

tuddy 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2005 Google just going to keep expanding, and expanding, until they either have done everything possible with Technology or go broke and close down. Google come up with some good ideas, and do provide some great resources in terms of education. Google more then just searching! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adriantc 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2005 By the way... I have heard that there are people who know the lat and long of Aria 51 and I was interested if there is anything to be seen. Please PM if you have the long and lat. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
an_unattributed_source 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2006 Yep. Not long ago Google released Google Moon. It is very much like Google Maps with the sattelite view on. But instead of showing the Earth, it shows the Moon. Google writes: You can see it here. And if you zoom in far enough, you can see something that we all suspected all along! Wow! What will Google think of next? Well, the obvious answer would apparently be Google Mars, since the Viking and subsequent rover/lander spacecraft (as well as orbiting missions) have mapped a substantial amount of the Martian surface. Does Google do all of these things (the unusual projects) just because they seem cool, or is it to build up the Google "brand name" so that people think that Google is a somewhat philanthropical company, unlike Microsoft, which has a reputation for being, well, greedy is the word that most immediately comes to mind. Whatever the motivation, keep the fun (and free) products and projects coming Google! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
