This... is fucking awesome:

Gaia space telescope's billion pixel camera to map Milky Way - CNN.com

Gaia, which lifted off from French Guiana, has been tasked with mapping the Milky Way in greater detail than ever before.

Designed and built by Astrium for the European Space Agency (ESA), the makers say the telescope is so sensitive that it could measure a person's thumbnail from the Moon, or to put it another way, detect the width of a human hair from 1,000km (620 miles) away.
