Worldwide Telescope project
Worldwide Telescope project is undertaken by Microsoft with
the help of telescopes all around the globe and those telescopes orbiting in
space. New content is added frequently and data from NASA is added too.
This project is an effort to construct a gigantic map
of the universe. The Microsoft Research has collected astronomical data from
scientists all over the world to build a 3D model. There are more than just
images it packs real information which
will be useful to students.
The Worldwide Telescope is now available only in
desktop, but a mobile version will be available soon. It runs in a browser and
requires silverlight. It also has a Windows client.
