Hello-
I wasn't sure how most people would like to see stuff posted. Or if this would interest many people. But in the interests of putting out more information, I created this topic as a place to put information on Venus Express science planning. If you have any ideas about this, let me know. Cheers- Don Merritt -------------------- --

I think an awful lot of people are interested in the results we get from Venus Express. Most people are impressed by pictures, but there are ( I think ) a surprising number of people who are also interested in results that aren't really visual, like plasma and magnetometer results.
I just don't know how many people are interested in what I do. You see calendars with cool space pictures, but you don't see any calendars showing me hunched over my keyboard, trying to figure out why my pointing commands aren't working as I expected, or why the actual data downlinked from an instrument was 20% less than predicted. If people are interested in this side of it, though, I'm happy to put it out there. Since I don't know what might be interesting to people, I'm just making it up as I go along. And if the responses are positive, I can keep doing it. Cheers- Don -------------------- --

Of course, It's not a visual thing, so I wouldn't say that it is exciting, but it is interesting and informative. Please keep posting updates! -------------------- _______________________
