Google Street View Submerges
Google's Street View has submerges, that's right .. underwater locations. In partnership with The Catlin Seaview Survey, Mountain View created the on-rails snorkeling experiences using undersea pictures from Heron, Lady Elliot and Wilson Islands at the Great Barrier Reef, Molokini Crater and Hanauma Bay in Hawaii and the Apo Islands in the Philippines. Combined with views from Chichen Itza and Teotihuacan, the new underwater tours might make for a respectable, desk-based vacation. Check the video after the break.

Google Maps strives to provide people around the globe with the most comprehensive, accurate and usable map of the world - including the underwater world. This ocean collection includes six of the world's most incredible underwater spots, including coral reefs (and their inhabitants) in Australia, the Philippines and Hawaii. This imagery is available to millions of people through the Street View feature of Google Maps and in our Street View Gallery at: maps.google.com/ocean.

When we finally get to the stars we might find out that what we know about cosmos is nothing.
To be honest man kind knows more about space than our own planet.

Sorry for the OT but what I really find amusing sometimes is the current human perspective of our presence on this planet. Many of us in modern times tend to view the planet as our birthright/property when in reality we are the ones whose very substance and being down to our very atoms belong to this world/universe. One of my favourite quotes from a certain science fiction series said 'We are the universe made manifest trying to figure itself out.'
