40 Stunning & Cool Google Earth Photos That Will Amaze You

Experience the Beauty of Mother Earth in a New Way

Back in 1966 the first photograph of Earth from the moon was taken by the first Lunar Orbiter and transmitted back to us land dwellers. This was succeeded by the first photograph taken on the moon by William Anders just two years later. Nowadays we don’t have to launch someone into space just for a photograph. Simply check out Google Earth and you can see pretty much any part of the world.

A stunning collection of eye-catching images called Earth View has been created through the Google service and is captured by satellite. You don’t have to look far to appreciate the strange beauty that’s mother Earth, whether you admire the snake-like quality of winding rivers or tree-root resemblance of trickling streams. Martians eat your heart out.
