Title: The Google Moon
Post by: Oliver on Thu 21/07/2005 20:26:55
Well, recently there was a topic about the Google Maps, today, I read a news article and found out that Google has expanded this service to the Moon (unfortunately the article was in Estonian so I can't show it to you). I found this quite interesting and wanted to share this.

The link is below:

http://moon.google.com/

EDIT: I looked at the old topic and saw that It had already been noticed there, sorry. :-\

Thanks, Zor.

Next time I'll speak louder.

I'll add this link (http://www.google.com/jobs/lunar_job.html) just to make sure people see it too.  This new map is intended to help people find their way to work.   I think.

I think the cheese may be a wallace and grommit reference. I'm a pop culture whore...

I think that the moon being made of cheese idea was around WAAAAAY before Wallace and Gromit.

Wikipedia says: John Heywood's Proverbes (1546) commented that "The moon is made of a greene cheese,"

yes, but since the cheese in question is not green, we're looking for yellow cheese moons :P

I will quote my self mentioning the fact it 'may be' a wallace and grommit reference... and since the cheese in question is yellow as was the one in wallace and grommit, and the fact that google has apparantly made a W&G reference before... I'll let you do the sums...
