Looks like a long video and I'm only looking for a momentary distraction from the tedious and repetitive exercise that logic homework is.
May I have a c0r summary?

LOL. No. It's an application that seamlessly integrates images from all sorts of different telescopes, giving you the ability to navigate smoothly and zoom in on different parts of the universe. Basically like a "Google Earth" for the night sky. |

| Google Earth also has something very similar to this, but I suspect this one will be much better. |
