Advantages Google Earth allows you to... Find locations on Earth, Mars, Earth’s moon, and the “sky” or galaxy. Explore underwater regions, including shipwrecks! We found the RMS Titanic! Articles and pictures related to different sites are available, and linked to Google Maps. Aerials AND street views available - it’s like you’re walking next to these locations!

Disadvantages At times there can be too much information and be overwhelming Your locations have to be pretty specific - when looking for the Titanic, we were first brought to Titanic, OK. The street view is not the most convenient of tools.
