Google Mars

Something someone might be interested in - Google have started a service similar to that used for their mapping service, called Google Mars. It seems that only a small section is available to view, but I assume they're going to expand this and integrate it into Google Earth, where the lovely picture of my house at the top of this page comes from (note to self: copyright the term Google Solar System immediately!). There are links to features on the planet's surface, and links to cool stuff like flythrough videos of parts of Mars.

You can also view the moon on the imaginatively-titled Google Moon. For fun, zoom all the way in to see what the moon is made of!
