Google Moon is a marriage of Google Maps with NASA imagery to mark the Apollo moon landing sites.
The very first moon landing took place July 20, 1969, 36 years ago today. A site called Where Were You? compiles stories of "the most amazing day on earth" in eight categories:
Pivot Point presents stories of people whose lives were turned in a different direction.
War is a collection of letters from Vietnam veterans and their families.
Foundation contains tales from people who helped in different ways with the mission.
That's One Small Step for Luanne... are stories about children.
Public Place, Public "Space" is about sharing the moment with lots of strangers at theaters, ballparks, airports, restaurants, etc.
The International "Seen" includes stories from people who were abroad.
That's Not Funny, Is It? are tales from people who found themselves in odd situations.
The Philosophical Context Reflections on the 'larger' implications of the mission.
You can still add to the collection.
The moon is full at 7 a.m. tomorrow, so tonight might be a good time to look up.
The wags at Google have built a surprise into their moon, as well. Zoom all the way in to see it.
This mapping technology has enormous potential, and there's a blog tracking how people use it: Google Maps Mania.
