Google Sky

Google have just launched Google Sky - they have teamed up with astronomers to create a tool to browse and explore the universe. You can find the positions of the planets and constellations on the sky and even watching the birth of distant galaxies as seen by the Hubble Space Telescope - more info on the application is here. They also recommend checking out the podcasts from Earth and Sky.
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?

O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
