NASA has recently released a real-time model of the ionosphere, the upper-most layer of the Earth's atmosphere where atoms are ionized largely by ultra-violet light from the Sun, available for Google Earth here. For more information on this model, and the importance of the ionosphere, read this article. Enjoy!
