Worldwide Telescope released

Great news today that the Worldwide Telescope project is now unveiled and you can download the software yourself and explore amazing scenes in space.  It's based on some of the best telescopic imagery on the planet and provides a rich way of navigating around the sky whilst zooming in and out of areas that interest you.

Looking round the universe is fun but a lot of the time I have no idea what I'm looking at which is why the guided tours are really useful!
