Gigagalaxy Zoom project‏

(12/10/09)

Here's a useful website if you haven't got the time to do some stargazing or just wondered what's at the centre of our galaxy, checkout the recently released:

http://www.gigagalaxyzoom.org/

Has high quality photos of our stellar neighbourhoods and you can zoom in and out from some photos etc. If you don't have the time to visit the centre of our galaxy, here it is:

Don't get too close though, there's a black hole at the centre ;-)
