The space things that are up there now? If you click on the telescope, you get a neat view of Mars. The Reconnaissance Orbiter is orbiting (profound, isn't it) Mars right now.

Percival Lowell's birthday!

Percival Lowell (March 13, 1855 – November 12, 1916) was a wealthy amateur astronomer who was convinced that there were canals on Mars, and was the founder of Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona.

Kind of cool that Google does this. I liked seeing the different things up during the Olympics.
