The 3D image is absolutely incredible! I hope that models are eventually made for educational purposes. Would be cool to have on a desk stand.
Even cooler would be a mobile of all spacecraft-visited comets. http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...st&id=33441 |

Once shape-file data is out there, I'll certainly make a 3D printable STL file that people can get printed at Shapeways or other 3D printing sites. I've already done Eros, Itokawa and Vesta ( and others ) http://nasa3d.arc.nasa.gov/search/ellison/model |

Do you provide textures and are the models u-v'd or are they just for printing? I should say I don't often have the time to post here, mostly lurking, but this mission is amazing, living up to all the promise and more. I remember sticking it in the calendar back at the launch date telling myself not to get hopes up too high as there were so many risks to overcome, but kudos to everyone involved in this one. - Michael |
