The WorldWide Telescope (WWT) is a computer program created by Microsoft running under either a Microsoft Windows client or a new cross platform web client based on Silverlight which allows its users to view outer space. It was announced at the TED Conference in Monterey, California in February, 2008. Users are able to pan around outer space and zoom as far into any one area as the data will allow. Images are taken from the Hubble Space Telescope and approximately ten earth-bound telescopes.

  • The WorldWide Telescope (WWT) is a computer program created by Microsoft running under either a Microsoft Windows client or a new cross platform web client based on Silverlight which allows its users to view outer space. It was announced at the TED Conference in Monterey, California in February, 2008. Users are able to pan around outer space and zoom as far into any one area as the data will allow. Images are taken from the Hubble Space Telescope and approximately ten earth-bound telescopes. It is possible to view the sky in many wavelengths of light. The software utilizes Microsoft's Visual Experience Engine technologies to function. The WWT project began in 2002, at Microsoft Research and Johns Hopkins University. Database researcher Jim Gray had developed a satellite Earth-images database and wanted to apply a similar technique to organizing the many disparate astronomical databases of sky images. As of October 2008, WWT had "1.5 million active users."

Ce service vient faire concurrence au service similaire de Google, accessible dans l'application Google Earth.

W programie udostępniono zdjęcia m. in. z teleskopów Hubble'a, Spitzera, Chandra. Program pozwala również na sterowanie teleskopem za pomocą sterownika ASCOM.
  • WorldWide Telescope (WWT) — компьютерная программа, созданная Microsoft, работающая под управлением либо программы-клиента на платформе Windows, либо кроссплатформенного браузерного клиента, созданного с использованием технологии Silverlight. Программа представляет из себя виртуальный телескоп и позволяет пользователям рассматривать звёздное небо в нескольких диапазонах электромагнитных волн, а также поверхности планет солнечной системы. Источниками фотографий является космический телескоп Хаббла и около 10 расположенных на поверхности Земли телескопов.
