Google celebrates Kopernikus' birthday

… with a nice animated graphics element. Attached a screendump of it.

Love it! Thanks for the heads-up, GdB!

Unfortunately, they failed to recognize Darwins birthday. I guess his existence must have been a theory too.

I rather like how unexpectedly they choose to celebrate somebody’s birthday. And I think it’s usually a round number of the person’s anniversary they put up–which Darwin’s was not this year.

Have you ever googled 'google doodle' to go through the old ones you may have missed? I always find fascinating doodles I've missed there!

I doubt I’ve missed any of them as I have Google set up as my home page on all my computers.
