Virtual Earth and WorldWide Telescope

[redmarine]

For you who love science or just like to spy on stuff check out these cool softwares:
http://maps.live.com/
This is a 3D map of the entire world but it wouldn't be completed without whole cities in 3D.
http://www.worldwidetelescope.org/ (You probably need Silverlight Technology to see the cool feature in the site)
For you who love space stuff check this out! You'll love it. The planets are in 3D! and you can make slide shows of space.

Hehe this tool is awesome indeed. You can also see the stars flying around by speeding up time.
And the best thing is that it is still in beta stage!
