A new addition to Google Earth is bringing the sky and stars closer to the people. Sky in Google Earth also enables users to see distant galaxies, constellations, and planets. The software uses a library of images from telescopes on earth and from Nasa’s Hubble Space Telescope.

You need to download the newest version of Google Earth to use the Sky feature.
