GoogleAstronomy

I would love to see Google Maps integrated with with online astronomy maps. It would be a perfect roadtrip tool-toy. Most rest-stops have very little light pollution, and if you could pinpoint where you are on the road, and then have an idea of the celestial bodies that can be seen from those coordinates it could be fun. Plus, the position of man-made satellites could also be identified, including the ones responsible for content available from keyhole.com. If you knew you were under one of the Keyhole satellites, would you behave differently? What would you do? Everybody say cheese!
