Space
Interested in space? Among the many sites on the
Internet today, these two sites between them would probably have one of
the best collections of space-related information you could want. If it
isn't here, it is available with a bit of hunting with a search engine.
This list is not exhaustive.

NASA
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has a massive site
here covering almost everything you could think of, from the latest
photos from the Hubble Telescope, to the training of the next Shuttle
mission crew. If you want, you can go straight to the Kennedy Space
Centre for launch info etc.
Heaven's Above
When is the Hubble Telescope, the International Space Station, the
Shuttle (if it is in flight) going to be next visible over our skies, or
any other sattelite for that matter? Where can the constellations be
found in the sky tonight?
The answers to these and many other similar
questions can be found at this site - enter your local time zone,
geograhic co-ordinates ( latitude and longitude) and location by
clicking on the link above, and the answers will be given to you to suit
where you live. If you do not know the geographical co-ordinates for
where you live (or are feeling too lazy to enter them), you can click on
these links for Nelson,
Richmond,
