Mars close to earth in August 2003... time to get there!

Post #1by Thierry_not_logged_in » 01.05.2003, 19:49

Looking down at Mars and Earth, august 2003

next to Mars looking at Earth, august 2003

:idea:
In August 2003, Mars will be only 56'000'000 Km from Earth, which is the closest in 73'000 years!
4 spacecrafts will be send to Mars from end of May to end of June.

Mars Express, Beagle 2, Mars Exploration Rover A and B.

Some experiments:

ftp://shatters.net/
gopher://shatters.net/
goher://shatters.net/
telnet://shatters.net/
cel://test.com/
cel://testcom/

It's apparent that phpBB is only allowing certain URL patterns to pass. There's no protocol list like I'd hoped; rather, there is a list of regular expressions that all require something that looks like a valid hostname after the double slash. Annoying. I'll try and fix this.
