The Earth is Square shares screenshots of NASA World Wind Java running in a browser. From the blog: "pred on the World Wind Forum has been working on getting the WWJava code to work as a browser applet and he has been making some steady progress. He has a link up now where you can try his changes and launch a WWJava Browser Applet session. Warning though, I have a fast connection and a pretty good computer with 4gig of ram .. and the applet still took about 6 minutes to fully load up."

This was a busy week for the NASA World Wind developers. The Confused Life blog informs us that the World Wind JAVA SDK has been released, this is not the NASA World Wind Java version but it's a significant step closer. The Earth is Square blog provides links regarding NWW Java and an F-16 demo and the accompanying video along with an interview with the NWW Team. From the latter: "Q) How do you see World Wind in comparison to Google Earth and ArcGIS Explorer? NASA World Wind is focused on science, but more than that, World Wind provides the opportunity for others to expand this open source visualization platform in ways only others can imagine."
