They could pretty much just use a couple of frames out of Empire Strikes Back and nobody would know the difference.
Having lived away from Ireland for years and not getting home too frequently, I find that Street View has the power to fully immerse me and make me nostalagic for places. It is up there with the list of Space Age Things I dreamed of as a kid and now almost take for granted. The future is arriving in wonderful ways and washing over us in waves. (But I'm still disappointed I can't hop into a suborbital hotel for a cheap 0g holiday)
I wonder are there enough of us for a HN meetup in Cork.
There's a few of us that meet once a month to talk Ruby, Rails and other bits of HN/startup/tech stuff. It's all very informal and you're welcome to come along (even if you're not a Ruby dev). Details here: http://rubyireland.com/cork/

I would pay money to cruise down that in Street View. I wonder if you could stick the Street View photo module on top of one of those Snow Cats and hit record next time they do a run?
Interesting documentary.
I've always wanted to go down there. There's even a few couchsurfers down there
Many sincere thanks!
