Fly me to the moon…

This might have been around for a while, but I only learnt about it today, and I think it’s amazingly cool!

For a while now Google has had an equivalent to Google Earth called Google Moon.  Now they have added ‘Street View’ to Google Moon showing images, panoramas and videos from the moon landings.  This is now a fantastic resource for the moon landing space missions, with lots of interesting information about the crews and how the missions progressed etc.

When I was playing with this today, I couldn’t help think that this is a perfect example of how web applications have amazing potential as educational resources.
