Dollars? Sorry Mr. Washington, we don’t accept US Dollars

May 15, 2008 in Uncategorized | No comments

I have a few posts that are in the queue for being published here… none of which are finished. Final (and only) examinations have arrived, and thus I’ve been trying to catch up on some mathematics I’m lacking.

Anyway, thought this was an interesting graphic, especially considering the hurt of living in the UK for the past 6 months. Click the image for the large version.

Yeesh!

WorldWide Telescope Released

WorldWide Telescope Error

Microsoft has released the WWT.

Free download available here: Experience World Wide Telescope

You’ll need all of the relevant .Net 2.0 cruft to browse the stars.

So far I’m impressed. Essentially operates like Google Earth but with the stars.

Download times are a bit long for the imagery, but that could be the connection here.
