- Asserting that sources exist is unconvincing. You need to link to those sources so we can assess them. That is, link to sources that actually discuss the subject in detail, not just to a search engine result list. Spinning Spark 10:46, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. Appears to have some significance in the history of virtual globes. It's covered in Virtual Globes: An Overview of Their History, Uses, and Future Challenges which gives some of the history (not in our article) of the development (Matt Giger, 1996). The NASA technical report The Role of Virtual Globes in Geoscience gives it a few sentences and confirms the pioneering nature of the development. Note that the original weblink at earthbrowser.com has been hijacked by malware so don't click on it – I'll remove it from the article. Spinning Spark 11:23, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
