Exploring the universe is getting more futuristic and user-friendly, thanks to the awesome app Microsoft Technology Center is working on.

"NUIverse" is a software that works with Microsoft Surface 2.0 to put outer space at a user's fingertips, literally!  It features a Natural User Interface (get it? NUIverse?) and a multitouch display to allow users to view stars and planets from any angle, speed, etc.  Check out the demo in the video below.  It's a little long, but it just gets cooler and cooler as it goes!
