Now I know I do not need Google too. As I saw the detail in WWT, I knew this was state-of-the-art, because you cannot beat the SDSS and hubble pictures for resolution - although I agree, my interest is in only some narrow use-cases. Cheers, T. Hi Alex,

Though I only checked with NGC7331. Alex. Giulio: Yeah, I agree with you; the plus is that GE is cross-platform, but yet it doesn’t provide that fine pictures as WWT seems to provide.

I happened to try this first, and I think it is great... It will take me maybe two more months before I have a chance to try the google feature. Cheers, T. Hi Giulio,

And it's cross platform, which is a big plus. http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=CrUQyeoBcoI :) ehm…
