As you probably already know, today is the 40th anniversary of the first Moon landing — arguably mankind’s greatest achievement (though, as Conan O’Brien pointed out, putting cheese inside the pizza crust is surely a close second).
In honor of the anniversary, Mac OS X, iPhone and iPod touch users can download Carina’s SkyGazer astronomy application, free for today only. (Hat tip: Jay.) That’s one small step for [a] nerd, one giant leap for nerd-kind.
Oh, and here’s the original live CBS broadcast of the moon landing. I love how it says “LIVE FROM THE SURFACE OF THE MOON.” It’s sort of like they were channeling The Onion… (profanity after the jump)
