Called it!

Me on Slashdot, 11 July 2007:

Don’t worry, it’s coming. I’ve seen previews of Google Sky at a couple of astronomical conferences so far. Also, check out partner number four for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope.

The BBC on 22 August 2007:

The constellations of Andromeda, Hydra and Vulpecula are now just a mouse click away for amateur star-gazers, following the launch of Google Sky.

The tool is an add-on to Google Earth, a program that allows users to search a 3D rendition of our planet’s surface.

Sky will allow astronomers a chance to glide through images of more than one million stars and 200 million galaxies.

Sky in Google Earth is included in Google Earth 4.2.
