Don't let the topic confuse you, as far as I can understand Google had nothing to do with creating this amazing website, it was created by www.margaris.de (http://www.margaris.de) and is like the most super cool thing I've seen in a while!

If you are an astrosexual like me, you REALLY have to go and check this out, NOW! :D

Whoah! That is awesome. What is astrosexual? Is it the love of space or something realted to that?

Hahah no it is no expression or term that actually exists (I think... :?) I just made it up now. I really love space. Well I don't get a turn-on from space, but I really feel "home"-like feeling when looking at the stars, reading about space and studying astronomy... I have always had this interest, for as long as I can remember. Telescopes, several visits to planetarium shows, endless books and pamphlets about space was the every day life of me as a 5 year old. Also - aliens aliens aliens! Although the alien-interest died in the teen years, only to be totally modified and resurrected in my now adult life, where I have a whole different perspective on aliens, angels, mankind and all that jazz... Anyhow, I guess now when you have the picture, you must have realised my reaction when I discovered this site! Thank you Metro (a free newspaper) for writing about this page!
