I don't know if anyone's posted this yet...but it's definitely worth a re-post.
I figured they would try something like this again. http://geekcounterpoint.net/files/category-10.html Just wait until they turn that bad boy towards Earth... [Edit: Image no longer available] -------------------- Mayor: Er, Master Betty, what is the Evil Council's plan?
Master Betty: Nyah. Haha. It is EVIL, it is so EVIL. It is a bad, bad plan, which will hurt many... people... who are good. I think it's great that it's so bad. -Kung Pow: Enter the Fist |

I can't believe what thought process just went through my head.
"Oh yeah - that Ikonos image is the same sort of quality for Jupiter as HiRISE managed. Those Mars pics from Ikonos are good - I wonder what Mars would look like through HiRISE" Duhhh Doug |

Imagine the regular stream of images we'd get with HST being 200 times closer to Jupiter et al than it is now. And imagine the downlink rates at Jupiter via Hubble's antenna! *cough*GALILEO*cough*... -------------------- |

Hopefully they'd get it to point in the right direction. Bob shaw -------------------- Remember: Time Flies like the wind - but Fruit Flies like bananas!
