谷歌地球增加了1000张我们星球的新航拍照片，结果证明地球是美丽的

Google Earth has just given you a free pass to explore 1,000 locations on Earth from the comfort of your desk. Taking the Google Earth View collection up to 2,500 landscapes across the globe, the new additions to the gallery prove that there’s an awful lot more to this planet than the animals living on it.

谷歌地球刚刚给了你一张免费的通行证，让你在舒适的办公桌上探索地球上的1000个地方。从谷歌地球景观系列到全球2500幅风景画，画廊的新成员证明了地球上的动物远比我们知道的生活在地球上的动物多得多。

As part of the largest update to the Google Earth View Collection, the recent upload encompasses volcanic regions, desolate seascapes and some scenes so alien it can be hard to even work out what you’re looking at. The images have been optimized to suit 4K screens, bringing some of the most remote spots of the globe to your home in stunning resolution.

作为谷歌地球视图集合最大更新的一部分，最近的上传包括火山地区，荒凉的海景和一些场景，所以外星人甚至很难弄清楚你在看什么。这些图像经过优化以适应4K屏幕，将地球上一些最偏远的地方以惊人的分辨率带回家。

Flicking through the gallery, it’s hard to believe such aesthetic variety can exist on one planet, and certain scenes, such as the very Mars-like shot of Tabriz, Iran, pictured above, truly seem other-worldly.

浏览画廊时，很难相信这样的审美多样性会存在于一个星球上，而某些场景，如上图中伊朗大不里士的火星式拍摄，确实看起来像是来自另一个世界。

"As a species, we've only had access to views from space for the last 50 years," said Gopal Shah, Product Manager for Google Earth in a Google blog. "Yet something encoded in us long ago seems to wake up when we see the world at this unprecedented scale. My hope then is this funny, little project – along with Google Earth as a whole – moves us to care more deeply about this strange but kaleidoscopically beautiful planet."

谷歌地球的产品经理Gopal Shah在谷歌的博客中说:“作为一个物种，我们只有在过去的50年里才能看到太空景观。然而，当我们以前所未有的规模看待这个世界时，很久以前在我们内心深处的某种东西似乎醒了过来。我希望这个有趣的小项目——连同谷歌地球作为一个整体——能让我们更深入地关注这个奇怪但却如万花筒般美丽的星球。”

The gallery has been extended to include a color map for locating the thousands of Earth View snaps, and the images, which are available to download, can be used as wallpapers on Android and as screensavers for Chromecast and Google Home.

该图片库已经扩展到包括一个彩色地图，用于定位数千张地球视图快照，这些图片可以下载，可以用作Android上的壁纸，也可以用作Chromecast和谷歌Home的屏保。

One particularly arresting shot is the above of the Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park, which is the largest hot spring in the United States, and the third largest in the world. The bizarre array of colors seen in the spring are the result of “microbial mats,” which form sheets of differing microbes around the edges of the mineral-rich water.

其中一个特别引人注目的镜头是黄石国家公园的大棱镜温泉，它是美国最大的温泉，也是世界第三大温泉。春天里看到的奇怪的颜色是“微生物垫”的结果，它们在富含矿物质的水的边缘形成了不同的微生物片。

There's so much to see on Google Earth and Google Maps it can feel almost overwhelming – but fear not. Someone already took the time to track down the greatest thing on Google maps.

在谷歌地球和谷歌地图上有那么多东西可以看，让人感觉几乎势不可挡——但不要害怕。已经有人花时间在谷歌地图上寻找最伟大的东西了。
