We have built this astrometric calibration service to create correct, standards-compliant astrometric meta-data for every useful astronomical image ever taken, past and future, in any state of archival disarray. We hope this will help organize, annotate and make searchable all the world's astronomical information.
Here is a realistic, professional space simulator for astronomy enthusiasts. Explore the Universe in a 3-dimensional view on the monitor of your computer. Fly from the surface of the Earth to any destination in the outer space. Simulate an outer-space journey in any direction, at any speed, and in any time in the present, past, or the future!
