Does anyone know when data for these will be available?

Stumbled across this, curious, and could use for a current project.

Hoping someone knows more than I do.

As soon orbits are available, I will definitely add new moons in "Celestia Origin". Jupiter rules! Woo hoo!

Good to know.
When you get them, can you also make a version of them as a standalone add-on.
I wish to add them to the next version of my solar system tour DVD.
One of the things I am working on for it to list the discovery date of each moon in its comments so it will show when the moon is highlighted/shown off.

The few people who have given feedback liked it, so I am continuing to work on it.
Keeping it's content up to date seems relevant.

Thanks in advance.

I found orbital data. I'll try to do everything in a few hours.

Thank you very much.
I had not thought response would be today.
I had simply hoped for the next few weeks.

I will be a few weeks getting everything redone on my tour DVD.
Changing the number of moons affects the rhythm of Jupiter, which effects the matching music.
I have also been playing with different music selections anyway, this just makes more options.

Do you want me to let you know when I Have updated it?
