Do you recall that a DVD disk was placed onboard the Cassini spacecraft, containing the signatures from 616,420 people around the world? DVD with signatures on way to Saturn I sent my signature, and I bet that I'm not the only one in this Forum... Now, do someone knows if there is an online viewable copy of DVD? I would like very much to check my name (probably not easy to find...!) Marco. -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

An example taken at random from the U.K. folder: (I blacked out the addresses on the postcards.) So...I do have access to a complete copy of all the signatures. However, searching it for specific ones would be very tedious. The TIFF files are sorted by country, and, within the US, by state, but other than that there's no identifying information connected with each file. Sorry to disappoint. I'd be happy to place a copy of the contents of the disk online, but I'm a little worried about posting all the addresses on the postcards. They are 8 years old, but... If anyone knows someone who wants to pull and catalog hundreds of thousands of signatures from among 27,000 individual tiff files, send them to me!
