Wonder if gps works on the moon. By the way, try out maximum zoom.

Zoomed all the way in and confirmed my beliefs.

I bet the GPS <to stay on topic> would work there. But you would have to use the crater avoidance option to get around.

Snatchbasket,

I too always thought it was made of cheese but noone believed me and they scoffed in my face. There are a helluva lot of roundabouts (rotaries, traffic circles) on the moon, so I hope they did not use CS6 to do the navigating around them. The only issue now is exactly what type of cheese it is. Time to dig out the authorative DVD of Wallace & Grommit as they've been there and eaten it.

True dat, Block. Didn't think of the round about problem.

Guess it looks much like London from space.

<by the way, hoping they clean out the bunch that are creating havoc in your country>

Now if I could only create a route to some of the points listed. It doesn't seem to work though. Apparently, I truly "can't get there from here." I always thought that was just an expression. :D

My Wallace and Gromit have seen more play time than most other videos in my house, very authorative - it's their speciality.

Thanks AD - cool site.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one that appreciates and enjoys them! :)
