"The WorldWide Telescope (WWT) is a Web 2.0 visualization software environment that enables your computer to function as a virtual telescope-bringing together imagery from the best ground and space-based telescopes in the world for a seamless exploration of the universe." Users can follow guided tours or explore on their own. The telescope is provided by Microsoft Research. It can be downloaded to a PC or viewed on a Mac or a PC using a Web client and Microsoft Silverlight. A high specification PC is needed, particularly for the downloaded version.
