Google and NASA will bombard you with more information
By Benj Arriola - Posted on Mon Dec 18, 2006Are you getting an information overload already with everything you can watch, read and listen to online? Here is more information coming to your computer screens.
So what was the deal with Google and NASA all about? It’s 1:30pm and their meeting started less than 3 hours ago.
Here are a few things NASA and Google have teamed up to work on as part of their Space Act Agreement:
- Real-time weather data visualization and forecasting
- 3D maps of the Moon and Mars
- Monitoring of the international space station and space shuttles
Both Google and NASA said they intend to incorporate NASA data with Google Earth.
NASA Ames director S. Pete Worden said: the Google deal reflected an agency push to work closer with private industry.
I want NASA Ames to establish partnerships with the private sector that will encourage innovation, while advancing the vision for space exploration and commercial interests.
