Lunar driving directions..

Today it has been 35 years since the first manned Moon landing by Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin and Micheal Collins took place. And in honor of that Google added it's space view which they have of our planet earth also for the moon available to the public. The site is accessible through moon.google.com.So if you are one of those people (and who isn't) and love to find the aerial picture of your home... Now you can find your lunar summer retreat as well.

The only thing I am missing are the lunar driving directions. What is the shortest route from my home to the landing site of the Apollo 11.


On this very same day Star Trek's Scotty was beamed up to heaven. Click here for Reuter's news story. He will be missed.

Who would have thought that the moon really is made of cheese
