Underground Constellations

Once upon a time, people looked at the night sky and saw animals in the patterns of the stars.

Now someone's done the same with the London Underground Map.

If you know me well you'll understand why I think this is so cool. I wonder what Harry Beck would have made of it?

Given that it's very hard to see the outline of an animal in the three stars that one can see at night from inside the Circle line, this makes a lot of sense :-S

More versions of it than you can shake a stick at here, including an excellent interactive local attactions guide and a flash movie morphing between 'diagram' and 'real geography' maps.
