Nasa Software
This is a cool-looking program... World Wind. if I wasn't so busy, I might take a look at this free software myself:
In a nutshell, it allows you to zoom from any satellite altitude into any place on earth using various images captured from LandSat and STRM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) elevation data. It's pretty impressive and definitely worth the 231MB download (although, it requires some pretty beefy processing and video power). [thanks to furrygoat]
