Google Sky

Perhaps on chowk we should sometimes take our heads out of socio-political issues of one of a million species (i.e. humans) residing on a small corner (the subcontinent) of one of several chunks of matter (planet earth) revolving around a fairly average star and look at the wondrous beauty and unimaginable vastness and extremes of creation to the extent we can perceive it through our senses as assisted by our telescopes.

To do this, install Google earth, and use its new feature, i.e. Sky!! Here is the link: http://earth.google.com.

And greetings to you my friend, whoever you are.

Azure: I just discovered the new sky option. Will try to spend less time on chowk and spend more internet time checking out Google sky.

Hehehe. This post is a good candidate for a Google Earth advert. I use google earth everyday and it has made my life better! Thank you Google Earth! :P
