Explore the Earth Via Your Computer

Recently a movie called Lion was released. The movie was a true story based on five year old Saroo who fell asleep on a train, which takes him thousands of miles across India.
Saroo survives many challenges before being adopted by an Australian couple.

25 years later, Saroo hears about a program called Google Earth, and uses the tool’s satellite imagery to find similar landmarks, which leads him to the train station where he got lost, and traces his way back home to reunite with his birth mother.

If you haven’t seen the movie, I highly recommend it! However, the movie highlights how amazing the Google Earth technology is.

WHAT IS GOOGLE EARTH?

Google Earth is a program which enables you to explore the globe with the swipe of your finger (on a tablet or smartphone), or with your mouse (on a computer).
You can fly through 3D cities like Tokyo or Rome, or walk the streets of Paris. The choice is up to you, and you can do it from the comfort of your own home!
