Google Earth can view street view & satellite imagery, oceans, 3D buildings, various locations, and save places as bookmarks/favorites (such as places you've visited or places you wish to visit).

Simply, Google Earth allows one to access any location in the world from your computer. One can locate businesses, homes, buildings, terrain and imagery all in 3D.

Google Earth provides access to vast amounts of global satellite, aerial and street-level imagery that Google makes available to the public through high-end enterprise-grade data servers in Google's data centers.

The Google Earth client is basically a specialized web browser that shows the results on a map and "bookmarks" or "favorites" are called Places.

Google Earth helps people to see and better understand the Earth. It allows anyone to pick up a mouse and see a street or building on the other side of world without leaving their bedroom or office.

In more critical situations Google Earth can provide first responders with a free and easy way to aggregate many locations and pin point them on a map as well as overlay historical and current imagery.

Google Earth is a popular free software allowing anyone to see the world with high-resolution imagery and/or in 3-D.

Google Earth is being used by everyone from the bicyclist trying to plan out their route to a first responder response team getting the lay of the land before sending out people to a new location. As of 2011, there were 1 billion downloads of Google Earth so it's on a lot of computers.

Basically, it teleports to you places you've never been to or those places you're planning to visit or are a distant memory.
