Moon transit from EPOXI
Posted: 18.07.2008, 22:02
NASA's EPOXI probe has taken an amazing series of shots of the Moon transiting in front of the Earth. I have prepared a small addon to simulate this in Celestia: orbital data from Horizons, together with a simple ssc that loads it. Once more, Celestia's accuracy is astounding. Find the addon in my Celestia page, it has a readme with details and instructions. Enjoy.

(EDIT: I updated the file with a longer trajectory, from the encounter with Tempel 1 to the end of 2010, it just seemed nice to have all the flybies.)
