Nice, I just went to check what was stated again about space (as in 'outer space') at the Where2.0 conference program website when I came across above frontpage image for the conference (there seem to be 2 images loading, the other one being a snowboarder). Diggin' deeper into the site, I find the original text I was looking for, where, amongst the Usual Geospatial Suspects, I saw this (all the way at the bottom):

Space: Space has come to the private sector. Microsoft and Google have both produced products that let us look at the stars. Are these just educational tools/publicity gambits or is this a new business venture that they are both exploring? What else is being done in this area?
