Google Earth Fun to "Fly To"

Go to Google Earth

and in the "Fly To" section on the main menu, enter

and then enter or click to begin search

Since you have entered a specific surface coordinate it may take you all the way down to ground level. If you Zoom back out a bit you will gain perspective.

Thanks to Patty B. for sending the coordinates! :-)

If you do not have google earth on your computer, here is the link for free download.
