Earthsim
is an Earth viewer that can be used as an education tool and as a screensaver.
The screensaver displays a view of the Earth from space with the correct
lighting for the time of day.
More exciting than the screensaver are the documentaries that can be watched
with EarthSim. Only one is supplied with this free download, but more can be
obtained by
subscribing
to Earthsim TV.
The other major limitation of this free download of Earthsim is that the zoom
is limited.
