Go to the same place you turned the overlay on, and uncheck it. You should be back home (to Earth)!

To get a more complete picture of Mars Topography, I used the USGS Topography Map of Mars to make a superoverlay...
There´s a radio buton folder with references.
I also included the North and South Topography´s Polar projections:

Tips: As I´m using the Earth globe to represent Mars, uncheck everything that belongs to our planet; atmosphere, layers, etc.
Please, be patient...it´s a slow server....

Will there be a google Moon and a Google mars when the European space agency and NASA finally map out the entire globes of our moon and mars? and in years to come, will the moons of Jupiter or Saturn be mapped out as well

Mars Is Warming, NASA Scientists Report
Data coincide with increasing solar output Written By: James M. Taylor Published In: Environment & Climate News Publication Date: November 1, 2005 Publisher: The Heartland Institute
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The planet Mars is undergoing significant global warming, new data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) show, lending support to many climatologists' claims that the Earth's modest warming during the past century is due primarily to a recent upsurge in solar energy.
Martian Ice Shrinking Dramatically
According to a September 20 NASA news release, "for three Mars summers in a row, deposits of frozen carbon dioxide near Mars' south pole have shrunk from the previous year's size, suggesting a climate change in progress." Because a Martian year is approximately twice as long as an Earth year, the shrinking of the Martian polar ice cap has been ongoing for at least six Earth years.
The shrinking is substantial. According to Michael Malin, principal investigator for the Mars Orbiter Camera, the polar ice cap is shrinking at "a prodigious rate."
"The images, documenting changes from 1999 to 2005, suggest the climate on Mars is presently warmer, and perhaps getting warmer still, than it was several decades or centuries ago," reported Yahoo News on September 20.
