garetheves Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Bit of a dumb question but if you find somewhere on GE, how do you post up the coords. I know it tells you them in the bottom left corner but is there a way of just copying and pasting them?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-macca Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 The actual site of Chenobyl is a little higher than that marker, as the reactor building is still visible. The reason being that there is still a large (debatably) amount of nuclear fuel and dust in there under several tonnes of concrete. Look at 51°23'22.32"N 30° 5'56.91"E, that's the exact co-ordinates of the reactor and you can see the dodgy roofs and large amounts of concrete over the place. They're planning on renewing the concrete sarcophasgus soon as it's dangerously close to falling down and letting out a new load of radioactive dust all over Europe..

MrHanky Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 This thread has restored my love of Google Earth (I know im a saddo). Just spent half an hour on the phone to my brother trying to decide between us if this 64 34 53.41 N 39 48 50.67 E is a Typhoon class submarine (biggest Sub ever and as seen in the Hunt for Red October). I think it is you know, not that anyone else will really care Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garetheves Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 This thread has restored my love of Google Earth i forgot just how cool it was.

I always think how lucky we are to be able to play and race at Santa pod, and yet dozen's of young aircrew never returned home after taking off from that exact same tarmac.

Terminator Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Worked out yesterday that the images on google earth for our area (Wigan) are about 6 years old!! Wish they would update them from time to time. Same here, the cars on our drive have probably been converted to hamster cages by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 how do i zoom in so its clear please In some areas you cant get clarity, don't know why. Perhaps they have taken out some light cloud layers but in doing so lost the definition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gzaerojon Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 how do i zoom in so its clear please it will only work on certain areas, normally main places like London etc. Brighton doesn't even zoom in i guess it's a work in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
