High res pics of my original "home town" now on Google Earth

NASA has a free one out there, I'll see if I can track it down again. It was actually out before Google Earth was. I have Earth Pro and and love it. It's a must have for us 'War Drivers' (ask if you're curious).

I've been playing with NASA World Wind this afternoon - it has a number of things that Google Earth does not - including the moon and other planets, the ability to view in virtual colors that show vegetation differences over a 10 year period, topo maps, linked earthquake and fires over a set period of time and lots lots more. It does not have the ease of use of Google Earth or the detail level. MSN local view doesn't thrill me at all. I'll leave NASA loaded up on this machine alongside Google Earth.
So what are the Earth Pro advantages - any higher resolution? It is so cool to go looking at people's houses, cruising the Grand Canyon, checking out the little air base a friend was located at near Tikrit Iraq etc.. But I'm itching to see Tikal and hunt pyramids in the Yucatan - and the resolution doesn't cut it! War Drivers?
