An Easter Egg on Google Maps Lets You Explore the Tardis on Streetview!

The spaceship from the BBC television show Doctor Who called the Tardis is a classic symbol for the 50 year old show. To celebrate the 50th Anniversary, Google decided to add an Easter egg for people to find. The Easter egg allows people to walk and step inside the Tardis. The design on the inside is the same one that the Tenth doctor (David Tennant) had inside his. People who are Doctor Who Fans (Hello!) are freaking out. They are so excited that Google did this, and you can look at it                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      here.  There are multiple websites that did an article on this, and this is just one of them posted on the Time website. To get inside, press the large cluster of arrows, and you will be inside. 

Just to clarify, if you don't know exactly what Doctor Who is, it is a Science Fiction television show on BBC. It is about an alien called the Doctor and he travels within time and space, and the newest ones have a thing for modern-day London. The Doctor is a Timelord, and that allows him to regenerate every time he dies, unless he it shot by beams that come from a monster called a Dalek. The Daleks are evil robotic things that actually resemble a saltshaker. When BBC produced Doctor Who, their budget was incredibly low, and the special effects were not that good. One of the villains that the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) defeated was a gooey head of cabbage that glowed a little bit. There are multiple reoccurring monster including: Daleks, Cybermen, Weeping Angels and the Silence. The Doctor always has a person he travels with and he calls them his companion.
