How have I only just discovered google maps for space? If you, like me, did not know about this little piece of internet treasure, you must check it out! You can fly over moons and planets - and it's all real data <little happy skips> ๐Ÿค— ๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿงช

Great time at the Scottish premiere of Fortitude last night, a new documentary about the growing space economy.
