World Wide Telescope

Miscrosofts World Wide Telescope (click to visit)

Scoble says that when he visited Microsoft a few weeks ago he was blown away by the World Wide Telescope. Actually he said it made him cry.

The WWT isn’t available yet, but you can see a demo in this TED talk. My impression after viewing the TED talk is that it’s like a Google Earth for the sky, seemlessly integrating pictures and information in a single platform.

I’m just hoping there’s an OS X version—but if not, there’s always Parallels or Fusion.
