My new Cassini-Huygens Tour

Post #1by Adirondack » 20.03.2005, 02:55

Finally I've finished my new Cassini-Huygens-Mission-Tour.
Yeah, Jestr, the time has come... :lol:

This Grand Tour (GT) contains much more information about the Cassini-Huygens-Mission, including the descent of Huygens onto Titan.
Jestr's impressive models of the orbiter and (landing) probe are included within the enhanced package.
If you already have installed Jestr's models just donwload the minimal version (without the models).

The entire tour consists of 4 parts within an interactively controlled CELX-file:
Part 1 = Mission preview
Part 2 = The descent of Huygens (with the main parachute descent, stage 1).
Part 3 = Huygens' scientific payload (with a description of the instruments, and stage 2 of the parachute descent).
Part 4 = Exploration of the Cassini orbiter and some of its devices.

The entire duration of this presentation (all parts) is approximately 62 minutes.
You can choose which part of the tour you wish to view.
This can be done when the script is first started, and again after each section of the tour has finished.
Each part has a duration of about 12 - 18 minutes.

You can download the tour via Celestia Motherlode
http://www.celestiamotherlode.net/catalog/scripts.php
in the "Scripts: Other" section. Choose the package you need (enhanced or minimal version).

I hope you will enjoy the tour (it was a hard piece of work for me :roll:).
