Google Earth with WebAssembly

Google Earth Ported to Browsers with WebAssembly @InfoQ

"The Google Earth team recently released a beta preview of a WebAssembly port of Google Earth. The new port runs in Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers, including Edge (Canary version) and Opera, as well as Firefox. The port thus brings cross-browser support to the existing Earth For Web version, which uses the native C++ codebase and Chrome’s Native Client (NaCl) technology. Difference in multi-threading support between browsers leads to varying performance."
