Sky in Google Earth lets users turn their desktops into virtual telescopes.

"Today, I'm excited to announce we are launching Sky in Google Earth," said Lior Ron, product manager for Google Earth, in a blog post on Wednesday. "You can now explore the universe from the comfort of your chair. Zoom in to distant galaxies hundreds of millions of light years away, explore the constellations, see the planets in motion, witness a supernova explosion; it's like having a giant, virtual telescope at your command -- your own personal planetarium!"
