I’m seeing stars!

Submitted by on Thursday, 23 August 2007No Comment

Google Earth - adding on the universeFirst we had the luxury of using a revolutionary search engine, then they moved to giving us the view of the Earth, further to maps of streets, and now we’re going to be seeing stars.

With an additional add on to the Google Earth application, users can now view the rest of the universe spending endless number of hours browsing through millions of stars and galaxies.

That probably explains why NASA gave Google a portion of their land and access to NASA data a year or two ago.

Hopefully this doesn’t kill time that office workers spend in front of their computer desk, or am I being naive? Duh!

Alright Google – so you’ve done Earth, the Moon, Mars, and now the Universe – what’s next?
