There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

+1.  This is a google maps-style interface that lets you zoom and scroll more easily.  I highly recommend it if you're going to spend more than 2 minutes looking at today's XKCD.

There are probably lots of things in the sky too, but the human lifespan is not long enough to investigate this.

I can tell you there are at least two whales in the sky.
