Many folks would like to see us back on the Moon and developing its resources.

Journey to Saturn From Your Computer

Jim sent me a copy of JPL's Internet Advisory: 2008-018 for Cassini.

The Super Bowl is over and you may have watched the ads all over again at
http://www.myspace.com/superbowlads

and maybe you would like watch some information about Cassini.

You can download an Internet Plug-In to view some media clips here.

Happy Viewing.

Shuttle should launch this week as well.

Wish them a good flight.

Thanks for looking up with me.

Journey to Saturn From Your Computer

Want a peek at Saturn as seen from space? A new interactive 3-D viewer
that uses a game engine and allows users to travel to Saturn and see
it the way the Cassini spacecraft sees it is now online at
http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/CASSIE and
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/cassini/multimedia/cassie.html .

The Cassini at Saturn Interactive Explorer makes the real Cassini
mission data fully available in three colorful, easy-to-use
expeditions.

The "Where is Cassini Now?" expedition shows exactly where the Cassini
spacecraft is and what it is doing each moment over the current
24-hour period. Viewers can see the spacecraft move in its orbit and
maneuver according to instructions from mission scientists and
navigators at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.

With the "Mission Overview" expedition, look back in time as Cassini
orbited the Saturn system over the past 3.5 years, and fast-forward
into the future to see where it is headed. Users can control two
virtual cameras to see Cassini fly by Saturn and its moons.

The "Saturn's Moons" expedition gives an in-depth peek at seven of
Saturn's moons, providing useful facts and interactive surface views
of each one.

More information on the Cassini mission is available at
http://www.nasa.gov/cassini and http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov .

The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the
European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. JPL, a division of
the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the
Cassini-Huygens mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate,
Washington. The Cassini orbiter was designed, developed and assembled
at JPL.
