Re: Mars 3D - Virtual Red Planet - 3D Model of Mars
Hello There
I wanted to let you know about a virtual reality project I recently finished.
Based on NASA's mars MOLA data. I turned the entire planet mars into a seamless
VRML model.
See http://mission.base.com/mars
Happy Holidays!

Re: Mars 3D - Virtual Red Planet - 3D Model of Mars
Hi, Dwain!
That's one impressive introduction you make! 
Looks like a great project you did, too bad i can't run it (really ancient computer)
I hope you stick around for a while on this board and have some fruitful discussions (can you tell i'm impressed by your achievement?)
So, a BIG welcome!

Very cool stuff! I'd attempted something similar in Java, but just didn't have the time/energy to complete it.
