I agree with hydrurga. While you can run google earth, I find it better performing to use it on the web.
hydrurga & rtmistler,
When I use either Firefox or Chromium I reach a page that says "Aw snap! The new Google Earth isn't supported by your browser yet..." and when I try the URL in Chrome I reach their page that begins loading Google Earth but then stops loading at about 90% progress. That was the first time... the second time it wouldn't even begin to load.

That's strange. It works fine for me with Linux Mint 18.3 and Chrome 63.0.3239.108 (64-bit). What version of Chrome are you running? Can you also check that Chrome doesn't have the Google Earth extension in case that is interfering in some way?

On my Linux Mint 18.3 and Chrome 63.0.3239.108 (64-bit) it just sits on "Loading in progress. 0 of 1,335,001,170 trillion liters of ocean processed"... not funny.
