Vell, I downloaded Google Earth. VERY cool. I spent 3 hours looking out everything. I found my house (could even see my grill in the backyard :P), my school, my Grandparent's house, Buckingham Palace, and wee cruise ships in the water.

What's in Area 51? :shifty:

you know there have been photos for years before and after the second air strip.

Almost every single video on Google Video says is unavaible. I downloaded the software.

Your lucky, I can't even practically see my town! :(

If it is 200,000 miles above the surface it is considered space, and not part of any contry so satelites can and have taken pictures of Area 51.

Google maps does not allow you to see Area 51 I have tried already it says were sorry we have no images for this zoom level.

 Vell, Google Earth does let you hover above Area 51, but I'm not sure if that white area is covered up or if that's just how the mountain looks. Check it out:

Only parts, do a google image search for area 51 airstrip.

I can't get google earth to log in and I have no clue about the moves.
