- graffitici 7y agoI still don't see it! Which part of the pond is it?
- kevinvdburgt 7y agoLooks like at the bottom left.

- autokad 7y agoI think its top left corner of the pond, it seems to be parallel with the edge of the pond

- eco 7y agoIt was centered and zoomed in on desktop for me (are you on mobile perhaps?). Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/ZQJMz4c.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZQJMz4c.jpg
- jandrese 7y agoTop left. For some reason the current image on Google Maps seems to be lower resolution than the screenshot posted to the BBC.
- mongol 7y agoI think different people actually get different images om Google maps..
- twistiti 7y agoI can confirm. They might use your origin account country?
- freedrock87 7y agoI can getting 2 images taken at different times when I am using Firefox or Chrome. The Chrome one seems to be much higher quality.
- thrwawyy48394 7y agoHey Google, is serving a lower-resolution image to Firefox part of leveraging a monopoly against Firefox? Is your legal team fine with that? Is there any legitimate reason anyone could possibly identify for why you would purposefully worsen the experience for a fully compliant browser like Firefox, by lowering the resolution? What does your legal team have to say about this?
- GrayShade 7y agoYou can get the better version in Firefox if you click Globe in the menu on the left.
- thrwawyy48394 7y agothanks. do you work for Google?

- orblivion 7y agoImpressive that you could identify that as a car, among all the pipes and things.
- giarc 7y agoInteresting that Google doesn't have Streetview available there. I figured most of the populated areas like this would be covered.
- lostmyoldone 7y agoClearly visible in Google Earth: https://earth.app.goo.gl/aiquVv https://earth.app.goo.gl/aiquVv
- dorukane 7y agoMuch better than google maps
- squarefoot 7y agoThe single thread WASM beta version appears to work perfectly on Waterfox (the multithread version loads data then sits there doing nothing). Not the fastest thing around but useable and noticeably better than maps.
- jraph 7y ago"When you have eliminated the JavaScript, whatever remains must be an empty page." Ah ah! Quite incredibly and sadly spot on.
- gefh 7y agoAre you complaining that Google maps uses JavaScript?
- jraph 7y agoNo, Google Maps is actually a case where JavaScript makes sense. But this message reminded me of many seemingly static pages that are actually blank if you don't enable JavaScript, without even any hint that you should enable JavaScript. Reader mode often works perfectly on these pages. Sometimes, blocking the white element hiding the content of the page works well too. I don't hate JavaScript, I have actually developed several web applications using it, and like it.
- jlarocco 7y agoI'll complain that Firefox isn't supported. Google is the worst.
- tejtm 7y agowe must be using different blockers, I see: Aw snap! Google Earth isn't supported by your browser yet. Try this link in Chrome instead. If you don't have Chrome installed, download it here. Or if you're feeling adventurous, you can preview a cross-browser beta of Earth built on WebAssembly.

- zaroth 7y agoThe 3D view looks so comically dystopian. The distorted effect makes everything look mangled. On the other side of the pond, about 4 houses down... the backyard looks burned out and the pool is drained and bloodstained. This is like /r/writingprompt/
- Benjammer 7y agoWhat is up with that red spot in that empty pool for real though? There's a truck parked out front with the door open, obviously people are working on the back yard in general, but what in the world would that red spot even be? Bing maps shows the backyard done and the pooled filled and normal-blue-looking.
- dwighttk 7y agoyeah, weird. Apple 2D shows completed pool, 3D shows backyard before the pool was started. Must be construction or something.
- rdiddly 7y agoIn some areas the soil has a lot of iron in it and looks reddish (like rust-colored literally). But I'm not sure whether this is one of those areas, and also the particular shade of red here seems a bit more vivid than just rusty-red!
- dmix 7y agoIt could just be a tarp or a toy that melted. Pools always attract a lot of dirt and insects. Without constant maintenance it will look discoloured pretty quickly. There's also construction-looking vehicles parked out front of these house so it's probably under renovation.
- jessaustin 7y agoDogfights. Empty pools are ideal venues. Handlers back up to the walls, spectators can see over their heads, and it's easy to clean up...
