Onward, Light Cone

I know I mentioned this before, but seriously, the RSS feed that tracks the progress of your personal light cone through deep space is just way too cool.

Just hours ago, mine cruised past p Eridani, 26.6 light-years from Earth. I used a cool open-source astronomy app called Stellarium to track it down.
