GrandTour  | | Description: | GRANDTOUR can simulate space as
seen from the Voyager and Giotto spacecraft. In addition, GRANDTOUR can
generate scenes from arbitrary points in space or the Earth, with the
spacecraft visible to the observer. The planet, moons, and rings of
interest (or comet, nucleus, and tail), stars, the sun, and the
spacecraft are all accurately drawn with wireframe representations.
Hidden line removal is done for the body surfaces. The motions of the
bodies themselves are highly accurate, with errors no greater than 500
kilometers. The user has considerable control over the time step, field of
view, etc., and many frames per second are typically generated.
The program was originally developed at the Jet Propulsion
Laboratory by John D. Callahan to assist in the analysis of science and optical navigation
data. In addition, the program was filmed by the BBC as part of a NOVA
documentary on the Voyager Uranus encounter, and by the Four Point
Entertainment Company for a commercially available video on Halley''s
Comet. Program conveniently runs from any Windows/DOS.

 Partiview | | Description: | «Partiview (Particle View) is a program that visualizes and animates three dimensional particle data. Within Partiview, you have the ability to navigate through 3-D data, as if you're "flying." Partiview is not limited to particle data; it can display 2-D images as well as multiple 2-D polygons that can be built into 3-D surfaces. It cannot record flight paths, though it can play them.
You can learn more about Partiview and how to visualize your own data in the manual. In addition, visit the Digital Universe site to download the Milky Way Atlas and other data sets as they become available.» | | | Version: | n.a. | | Filesize: | 410.16 Kb | | Added on: | 01-Aug-2003 | | Downloads: | 558 | | Category: | Windows / 3D Simulation | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
| SkyServer Galaxy Explorer | | Description: | This tool enables an interactive, video game-like fly through of the 3D galaxy distribution in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This tool runs under Windows, requires DirectX8.0 or higher, and a graphics card supporting 3D. | | | Version: | 2 | | Filesize: | 1.81 MB | | Added on: | 14-June-2004 | | Downloads: | 665 | | Rating: | 3.0 (1 Vote) | | Category: | Windows / 3D Simulation | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
| Lunar Globe, the Virtual Museum of Lunar Vehicles | | Description: | Lets you interactively survey the lunar sphere, lunar formations and other objects without an astronomical telescope. "Interactively" means you can select objects to survey, control position of a virtual point of view and field of vision. You may explore the interactive map of lunar craters, with help of a Lunar Globe's dynamical interface.
On the one hand, some historical data is collected here, which can be a reference information. On the other hand, Lunar GLobe gives the possibility to have a 3D look at some Terrestrial spacecrafts, launched towards the Moon and reached a successful soft landing. These spacecrafts have been standing on the lunar ground since the end of Lunar Race.
Such possibility is certainly much limited, and does not give a real picture of authentic validity - because it is founded solely on computer imitations - even on imitations of real lunar vehicles. | | | Version: | 1.107 | | Filesize: | 1.36 MB | | Added on: | 02-Sep-2003 | | Downloads: | 702 | | Category: | Windows / 3D Simulation | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
| GeoPlayer Mars Demo | | Description: | The GeoPlayer Mars program allows you to explore the Red Planet in 3D from outer space to rocks on the Martian surface or fly through valleys and over craters on desktop PCs and laptop computers. This program was created with and is a demonstration of the GeoMatrix® Toolkit technology by GeoFusion, Inc.
Note: Requires 128 MB Ram and a graphics card with OpenGL hardware support. | | | Version: | 1.4.3 | | Filesize: | 31.00 MB | | Added on: | 16-Apr-2004 | | Downloads: | 846 | | Rating: | 7.4 (3 Votes) | | Category: | Windows / 3D Simulation | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | Comments (2) | |
| World Wind | | Description: | World Wind lets you zoom from satellite altitude into any place on Earth. Leveraging Landsat satellite imagery and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission data, World Wind lets you experience Earth terrain in visually rich 3D, just as if you were really there.
Featured data includes:
Blue Marble
Landsat 7
SRTM
MODIS
GLOBE
Landmark Set

 Copernic | | Description: | A real-time simulator of the Solar System and its surroundings written under the OpenGL environment using C/C++. It offers the posibility to view satellites, planets, asteroids, comets, centaurs, transneptunian objects, 400 stars, most of the nebulas and clusters around our Sun on a 7000 l.y range. It also displays all the Messier objects, 750 transneptunians, 10 000 asteroids, 300 comets, 100 centaurs. You can also view the sky as it is seen from your location, and find out when does a planet rise, set or transits (the program is set to show you the sky as seen from the town of Resita Romania but you can change it as you please).
The program base version is in Romanian. Those wanting the English version must email the author to receive an additional 1 MB executable file for the interface - replacing the copernicus.exe file. | | | Filesize: | 22.28 MB | | Added on: | 02-Oct-2004 | | Downloads: | 1097 | | Rating: | 6.8 (2 Votes) | | Category: | Windows / 3D Simulation | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
