In the old, now obsolete Mars Express, there was an xyz trajectory for the cruise stage. Maybe that can be used to show the full mission? Also, have you made any progress on the Pioneer Venus probes?
If you see that I made a dumb or nonsensical post years ago, please forgive me in advance.

Hey Toutatis
Correction for SSC-file... it's again about demensions... lol

for a radius of 6 meters (body + solar cells), write Radius 0.006 and not 0.0006

:wink:

Still formally developer, but too tired to develop. I feel sad, but Celestia is going forward despite it.
Btw, the universe is ruled by electricity.

That's an interesting idea! I wonder what Art Blos will think when he sees this?
