WWT Data Blog

Details of the many datasets in the WorldWide Telescope. This includes all-sky surveys, individual study images from various telescopes, panoramas, etc.

Example Panoramas from Denver

Strictly speaking, the following post has got nothing to do with WWT being used in astronomy. Actually, that remains the case even if you remove the 'strictly speaking' qualifier.

It is, however, rather cool. So... go have a look at the file kcyupanos.wtml, which has a few panoramas that Dr. Ka Chun Yu, Curator of Space Science at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, took using a lightweight camera, a Manfrotto 390 tripod, and a Gigapan unit.
