Hello there.
I've got a question about the science data of the galileo probe mission (Plunge into jupiters atmosphere). Is it possible to download the complete dataset of the mission? If yes, where can I find those data? I've tried to find them with google, but I found nothing. Thx for help... (Sorry for my bad english. I don't use it so often, because I'm from germany ) -------------------- --- Under Construction ---

I was actually thinking, when looking at a chart that John Zarnecki had of the tilt angle of the huygens probe on the way down to titan that it's a shame we've not seen the same treatment that we saw for the MER EDl sequence, applied to previous Entry sequences.
I dare say it could technically be done manually in an animation package - but it would be a nightmare. If the Galileo stuff is anywhere -it'll be here http://atmos.nmsu.edu/PDS/data/gp_0001/ Doug |

Budgets and all the technicals problems Galileo had aside, would it have been feasible to put a camera on the Galileo atmosphere probe (and why didn't it ever get a separate name?)?
Just imagine the vistas it would have captured. Maybe even the giant floating gas bag life forms drifting by, sifting in their version of krill.... http://davidszondy.com/future/otherworlds/...ets/jupiter.htm -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
