A new way to while away some time

We all loved Google Earth and looked up where we lived and worked and were about to holiday. Now you can examine the heavens as well with Google Earth Sky Objects as Google Earth now allows you to view heavenly objects, including stars, constellations, galaxies, planets and the Earth's moon. To view these objects, click View > Switch to Sky or click. In Sky view the Earth is hidden and the 3D viewer presents a view of the sky. Even cuter the sky you see is the sky above the Earth location you were currently in when you swapped views. This is going to end all argument about what constellation is what and is that the Milky Way.
