Microsoft's WorldWide Telescope project was unveiled yesterday at TED, and you can see the video here (high res download link here.) Tears aside, this is a big undertaking combining terabytes of data from satellites and telescopes that will change the way children, teachers, scientists, astronomers -- and you -- view our universe. Visit the WWT site at www.worldwidetelescope.org.

This was a project very dear to Jim Gray, who set sail on a voyage of his own in January 2007 and was lost at sea.
