You are about to see the earth as never before. Alive, in real time, and, yes— in 3D.

We hear about climate change every day. Now, in real-time 3D, you can manipulate the earth’s cloud layers and the biosphere, watch sea temperatures rise and fall right in front of your eyes, and track environmental projects and news stories all over our live earth.

The new Discovery Earth Live rich Internet application is a highly interactive experience that puts massive amounts of scientific data into everyone’s hands. You can create your own environmental scenarios and share them with friends and family by placing widgets on social networking sites, blogs, and Web sites.
