One Small Step for a Web Search Tool

So today is July 20, on which date in 1969, shortly after the six-month anniversary of my birth, Neil Armstrong set foot on the Moon. To celebrate, Google has launched the extremely cool Google Moon, basically Google Maps for the Moon. It includes locations for each of the Apollo landings.

My favorite bit? When you zoom in past the limit of the data NASA have for surface features on the moon, it shows you the terrible secret of space: it’s really cheddar cheese.
