Our on-line system is a detailed sky map. We generate the map automatically using our database with the positions and basic characteristics of space objects. You can get more details from Getting Started. # Could I see the real photographies of the sky? Yes. A Click on SDSS button at the left upper corner (SDSS) generates a real high resolution Sky Survey image of the area that you have been browsing. Another way to look at different sky images is to go to Astro Photo. # What is SDSS? Simply put, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is the most ambitious astronomical survey ever undertaken. When completed, it will provide detailed optical images covering more than a quarter of the sky, and a 3-dimensional map of about a million gal emmineb Thu, 03 May 2007 11:20:39 GMT http://www.projectrho.com/rocket/index.html So You Wanna Build A Rocket? emmineb Sun, 30 Jul 2006 21:07:34 GMT http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/bickel/DDDMMSS-decimal.html This utility permits the user to convert latitude and longitude between decimal degrees and degrees, minutes, and seconds. For convenience, a link is included to the National Geodetic Survey's NADCON program, which allows conversions between the NAD83 / WGS84 coordinate system and the older NAD27 coordinate system. NAD27 coordinates are presently used for broadcast authorizations and applications. This utility requires that Javascript be enabled to perform the calculations. The older non-Javascript version remains available. emmineb Sat, 04 Jul 2009 10:56:39 GMT http://ericpoulton.blogspot.com/search/label/steampunk%20star%20wars Inspired by this neat little project, I decided I wanted to reimagine the Star Wars universe in a steampunk context. I know, whenever anyone reimagines anything, they either make it a) adult and edgy (99%) or b) steampunk (1%), so I'm not getting any originality points, but it's still a pretty exciting idea for me. Meaning I'll be bored of it in a week and start drawing dogs wearing hats or something. emmineb Thu, 26 Apr 2007 13:18:03 GMT http://www.fallingrain.com/world/ temperature precipitation cloud cover meteo meteorology climate emmineb Wed, 27 Sep 2006 16:43:12 GMT http://www.metafilter.com/mefi/53382 A practical discussion of weapons that would work in space and orbital combat. emmineb Sun, 30 Jul 2006 21:35:12 GMT http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/astronomical-applications/data-services/rs-one-day-world Complete Sun and Moon Data for One Day United States Naval Observatory NOTICE TO USERS Commander, Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command is consolidating the command's web presence in accordance with Department of Defense (DoD) and Navy guidance.
