Worldwide Telescope

I hope you got chance to download Microsoft’s Worldwide Telescope yesterday. Some of the tours are just mind-blowing. No, that’s not right: all of them could be mind-blowing, it’s just that I’ve only had chance to look at 2 so far and they certainly blew my mind.

The initial view of the screen looks a little “busy”, there’s obviously a lot of depth to this software, so if you don’t know where to start do what I did. Turn on your speakers and choose the “Galaxies” option at the top of the screen, then view both “seven top galaxies” and “M82 cigar galaxy”. VERY impressive.

Let me know of any views or features that you recommend.
