check out:
http://liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov/RealTime/JTrack/ IF you have a pretty fast machine, click on "J-TRACK 3D" and play around. It shows *every* artificial satellite in orbit around the earth, *in real time* -- they move while you watch. Don't forget to click and drag in the window. The ring of geostationary birds is particularly impressive. Did you know there were so many? -------------------- "Democracy dies when the people wanting their government to take care of them outnumber those wanting to take care of themselves." - Author Unknown - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - For a selection of lures, reels and other items, visit my eBay shop http://stores.ebay.com/JaNewt-eMart |

Excellent Newt cheers
I did have a poster that showed all the sats in Low Earth Orbit but it got thrown away Looking forward to spending a bit of time on that site mate (water on Mars looks like an interesting read for a start) [ 22 April 2002, 10:05 PM: Message edited by: ALAN FAWCETT ] -------------------- TROGG (Alan)
