This "research" is to help improve the realtime simulations. For the Messenger Mercury Flyby 2 I plan to integrate "live" images from the solar system simulator (http://space.jpl.nasa.gov). Having read through various discussion boards, I noted that reference was made to that site being down during the Phoenix landing, and assuming that the same may occur on 6 Oct, it would probably be sensible to host time critical images on the same server as the realtime simulation. Hence my questions:
When did space.jpl.nasa.gov go down? When did it come back up? If anybody remembers, please let me know. Thanks! -------------------- |

Daniel, I was wondering if there was any way to integrate your script with the Celestia program.
It would make for some nice 3D visualisations that Outreach people could use and then fly around. Just a thought. Astro0 |
