Best of Google Earth
Nov 9th, 2006 by Milan Dinić
Silicon.com shows off 32 interesting satellite images, like these:
Hollywood sign
Californian prisoners
Dolphins in Siegfried and Roy’s Secret Garden in Las Vegas (nothing’s secret from satellites these days)
Swastika in San Diego
Green circles near Area 51 (did aliens forget this?)
The “Leaning towers” of Manhattan (basically, a problem with how the software merges images)
Nope, not the Eiffel tower, but Blackpool Tower in the UK
A burning Iraq oil field (kind of “worst of Google Earth”)
Sunbathers caught on satellite
Dubai’s Palm Island
The obligatory cursing corn circles
