World Wind is a free, open source API for a virtual globe. World Wind allows developers to quickly and easily create interactive visualizations of 3D globe, map and geographical information. Organizations across the world use World Wind to monitor weather patterns, visualize cities and terrain, track the movement of planes, vehicles and ships, analyze geospatial data, and educate people about the Earth.
World Wind's source code, official releases, engineering roadmap, issue tracking and more are hosted by GitHub and managed by the NASA World Wind development team.
It's open source
Because World Wind is completely open source, extending the API is simple and easy to do, creating a powerful platform for giving any application the means to express, manipulate and analyze spatial data. World Wind technology can be incorporated into Windows, Mac and Linux applications, web pages and web applications, and mobile applications as well.
Build what you want
World Wind is different from a 3D globe like Google Earth because it is not a completed application targeted at end users. Instead, it is an SDK (software development kit) that software engineers can use to build their own applications. World Wind provides a geographic rendering engine for powering a wide range of projects, from satellite tracking systems to flight simulators.
NASA WorldWind has been around for a long time, since 2003, I've never heard of it, but just saw it on YouTube.

Anyhow, I saw that it was being used in VR
