...For us geeks, anyway.  If I am badly behind-the-times with this, well, forgive my lapse, but check out Celestia, guys.  Put it on your compy (whatever OS you're using, they've got a version for it) and feel the godlike awesomeness explode inside your brain.  It's SPACE!  In your COMPUTER!  Like a Google Earth for all of the known universe.  Look at this little teaser.  NASA uses it, and best yet, it's open source.  Which means, yes, you can not only check out Quaoar, Bacchus, Triton, Titan and M 31, but you can get nifty add-ons that will show you where Spock's homeworld of Vulcan could be.  FOR SERIAL.  Join me in a real-science-squee, everybody!
