The problem here is that since you downloaded the RPM directly (presumably from Google's web site), you don't have the public key that matches the private key used to sign the package. Try this instead:
Quote: yum install --nogpgcheck google-earth-stable_current_i386.rpm |

If it's anything like the previous version then it requires a glibc library newer than the ones that ship with CentOS 5. There was a workaround in an old thread which involved downloading a copy of libstdc++ and installing it into the same directory that contains the google-earth executable.
