Google CEO Sundar Pichai has announced that a 'Timelapse' feature has been introduced in Google Earth, the biggest update since 2017, which will make anyone watch time unfold and witness nearly four decades of planetary change.

Our planet has seen rapid environmental change in the past half-century -- more than any other point in human history. The new Timelapse feature in Google Earth compiles 24 million satellite photos from the past 37 years into an interactive 4D experience, Pichai said on Thursday.

 For 'Timelapse' feature Google has compiled 24 million satellite photos from the past 37 years into an interactive, explorable 4D experience. Now in the biggest update to Google Earth, since 2017, people will be able to see our planet in an entirely new dimension, Rebecca Moore director of Google Earth, Earth Engine, and outreach told reporters during a news conference.

Timelapse in Google Earth is really a big leap forward. Because now our one static snapshot of the planet has become dynamic providing ongoing visual evidence of Earth's changes from the climate and human behaviour occurring across space and time over four decades, Moore said.
