Google Space ?

So will Google be coming up with something equivalent to Google Earth ?

Allow one to browse the sky & "zoom" in to smaller sections as they get more resolution ?

I think that would be so cool. I'd love to introduce my little one to astronomy, but between the light pollution & weather, it's not always a viable option.

Even better,

Because there will be so much data, the more eyes that can look through it the better.
Then anybody could be the one who discovers something new in space.

Would be awesome to see the stars and planets without having to pull out the telescope from the closet and setting it up.
