Microsoft Launches World Wide Telescope

Now you get to view Space from your own very computer. Yes, that is what the World Wide Telescope is. It is a resource of high resolution pictures & images that have been captured by high resolution telescopes across the world & those in space. You can now zoom in & zoom out into the night sky, check out the various planets & satellites in our solar system & much more. This is just fabulous.  Check out more on this at http://www.worldwidetelescope.org/ 

It will be great if in the coming years, we can get live pictures as well. Wouldn't it be fun to zoom in & zoom out onto objects flying through space, including space shuttles! Here hoping for more. "Keep an eye on this Space". Pun intended!
