The WorldWide Telescope

sternwarteMicrosoft Research brings us the WorldWide Telescope. It is not released now but I can not wait until we will be able to try it the first time. Why am I so excited about this? Why is Robert Scoble so excited about this?

We all know Google Maps and Microsoft Live Maps. We are able to zoom in and out and to see many places of our planet in brilliant details. But the universe … you can zoom in, and in, and in, and in, and in, and in, and in … it does not end. I am really curious about how good the quality of the images will be. There are so many places in our universe nobody else has ever seen - and maybe we will be able to see them soon on our monitors.

UPDATE: If you got some time left have a look at this video that demonstrates what the WorldWide Telescope will look like. I am really fascinated.
