"A 2D map of C-G seems like a tough order; the projection math alone..." Don't worry! If you can put a grid on the surface (as we have seen already), you can warp that grid into any map projection you like. Mapping will be no huge problem - in fact I expect they have a rough one already (I've been playing with one myself). Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Great work Malmer, the loop is a good addition. A further improvement that could be done is to add the timestamps for the loop images in a list somewhere, which would show that timestamps render when you mouse over it. That way you could also go through the loop sequence at your own pace if you wanted to by simply slowly (or quickly) moving the mouse over the list of timestamps.
