Earth's biggest update in years

In case you need a reminder about how our precious earth has changed, check out the biggest update to Google Earth since 2017 where you can now see our planet in an entirely new dimension — time. Timelapse in Google Earth shows the rapid change on our planet in context through five thematic stories. For example, the retreat of the Columbia Glacier in Alaska is captured in the "Warming Planet" tour. Both fascinating and beautiful, we can see how our choices are making a difference. 

With Timelapse in Google Earth, 24 million satellite photos from the past 37 years have been compiled into an interactive 4D experience. Now anyone can watch time unfold and witness nearly four decades of planetary change.
