Cassini is Everywhere
Under my hotel room door today was
a front page photo of Saturn from the Cassini spacecraft. Given that
the ongoing stream of spectacular pictures from Cassini has been greeted with such anticipation, and has generated such excitement, I wish I’d included Cassini in
the Longhorn Higher Education Concept Video. It’s completely fortuitous that
the demo centers on calculating the flight trajectory of a space probe to Saturn. Let’s hope JPL publishes the flight path data to help someone build a great Longhorn photo-journal application that correlates these photos with Cassini’s actual position at the time of the photo.
