Google Mars

For those of you who don't know, there is a new program to get to know Mars a bit better, one that I have been anxiously awaiting, called Google Mars. See http://www.google.com/mars/ .

I think this is a truly amazing idea. I mean, even I, who consider myself a space geek, know almost nothing about the terrain of Mars. And now, anyone with the desire can play with the images from there. I hope they will put the images from the HiRISE on there as well, the camera which I will be working with, which would be an even greater resolution than the current images.

So, I can't wait for the program to be downloadable! I give this a 2 thumbs up, it's awesome!
