HOVEROCEROS
Friday, 18th April 2008 by Alex Turnbull
In an incredible stroke of luck, this image of Potsdam, Germany was captured at exactly the same moment by both Google Earth and I Can Has Cheezburger!
Ladies and gentlemen I give you, HOVEROCEROS!
(If you haven't got a clue what we're on about, hopefully this should help!)
Thanks to sladys and I Can Has Cheezburger.
I must say, I Can Has Cheezburger and Google Sightseeing are definately in my top 5 websites
Heh…I like the name. There’s some good photos in the Panoramio layer in Google Earth to give you a ground-based perspective.
You can see it hovering here in this LiveMaps shot: http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?v=2&FORM=LMLTSN&cp=sqzw7tj2mk85&style=b&lvl=2&tilt=-90&dir=0&alt=-1000&scene=10854291&phx=0&phy=0&phscl=1&encType=1
@Frank – yeh those are great shots, thanks.
And here is a pretty famous park: https://www.googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=&c=&t=k&hl=en&ll=52.403165,13.038915&z=17

It’s a fraud! Like David Blane, the Rhino is clearly being held up by strings.
Boo! The visual approximation of a pun. 🙂

Hey, Potsdam, that’s where the Einsteinturm (Einstein Tower) is: https://www.googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=&c=&t=k&hl=en&ll=52.378857,13.063887&z=20
Einstein… Wasn’t that about gravity and stuff? 😉
For those like myself who were curious of what that really is…
