The Star
KUALA LUMPUR: Internet users can now access the imagery of millions of celestial objects without downloading software.
Google Sky brings the imagery and functionality of its Sky in Google Earth feature to web browsers.
This makes it easier than ever for students, amateur astronomers and professionals alike to explore the universe, Google said in a press statement.
By surfing to http://sky.google.com, users can browse, zoom and pan the sky, search for stars and galaxies, and link to any place in the sky.
The same features that are available in Sky in Google Earth, such as "Backyard Astronomy," "Hubble Showcase" and podcasts from the radio programme Earth & Sky, can be accessed by clicking on an image strip that appears along the bottom of the page.
