Why?
Because it picks up little details like Area 51, the White House lawn, and my crappy shed.
And this test missile flying around Utah. Canada, you've got incoming :lol:

Oh fer crying out loud it aint a missile.
It is an airplane. LOOK. You can even see the black wings in the front and back, and the black nosecone.
Missiles don't have dual jet engines bolted to the sides. If you follow the contrail, it leads back to the bloody airport. :rolleyes:
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."

Hah, thanks Doc. Nobody, not even myself, on the board I picked this up from noticed it was a plane.
Consider my foot lodged firmly in mouth.

ZOMG security risk! What diabolical use could the evil villains of the world use Google maps for?
With great power comes the great need to blame other people.

From Google Earth, here is a missile launch site. Do you know what country it is?

Well, you
can actually see Area 51. Search for "Rachel, Nevada" then scroll west some ways. The first sign you'll see is an airstrip across a salt lake.
The area directly north and southwest of the base is pretty interesting too.

Actually, it works just fine to type in "Area 51" in the search too.
I wonder what I would get if I typed "aliens". Hmm.
