But why is it showing like this, Now? Why the silence from Google officials?...

Ignoring the photos from the real satellites that show the poles and acting as if Google owned the only satellites available is naive, to say the least.
A Google-sponsored satellite has beamed its first picture back to Earth in a successful test of a camera that will supply images for the Internet giant's free online map and navigation services.
The high-resolution color image from GeoEye-1, which was launched September 6 from a US air force base in California, was of a university campus in Pennsylvania, satellite operator GeoEye Inc. said in a statement.
The Dulles, Virginia-based company provided a link to the image at its website: www.geoeye.com/CorpSite/gallery/Default.aspx

Google buys imagery from GeoEye. Just one among several customers. Unfortunately, I don't think the free version of Google Earth will be using this imagery.

Not that I believe any part of this hoax but... in the words of Blossom Crazychild, she isn't sure what Alabama means. However, she did say with no uncertainty that the GFL ship will appear over the southern hemisphere. You guys in the US are over the northern hemisphere which means the GFL ship ain't going to be over the USA let alone Alabama.
Anyhow, it's all crap anyway (including this thread).
