The Outer Solar System will still have that stuff, but be even calmer.
It's funny what small changes can make a difference!
Also, the speed is effectively 1/2 the previous video, which helps.
Orreries are great. It reminds me that, at 46% of the time, Mercury is most often the closest planet to Earth.
Didn't know that. Huh.

A: What is the “Responsiveness”?

GlorfindelOn most websites, information is presented in different columns. On Stack Exchange, this is the left navigation, the main content like posts in the center and the different sidebars (Featured on Meta, Related Questions, Hot Network Questions) on the right. Responsiveness means that based on the s...

A: What is "Disable Responsiveness" in the footer section of Stack Overflow?

JensVIf the window gets small enough, the layout of the page changes to adapt to the width. When you disable responsiveness, the page sets a minimum width which it will keep regardless of screen width. With this you can for example make sure stuff doesn't wrap on a small screen (if you don't want it ...

Rich Moy on February 14, 2019

After an exciting end to 2018, we kicked this year off with the first “hackathon” in Stack Overflow’s 10-year history. Unlike a traditional hackathon, it wasn’t just for our developers. Any employee working on our products or directly with the Stack Overflow community was encouraged to participate, which is why we dubbed the event a “Make-A-Thon.”

Employees from our engineering, design, and support teams spent a full week working on projects outside of their typical day-to-day responsibilities. For our inaugural Make-A-Thon, participants brainstormed improvements to our power user and moderator experience on Stack Overflow. …

New scenario dropdown... Somewhat improved collisions (Still suck, though)... A new backdrop; the milkyway, with the correct tilt relative to the solar system (60.2 degrees) :D
Oh yea, new textures, too
For some of the bodies

Work has me in Florida next week. They wanted me to go up to the Cape area for a sales call at a contractor there. Initially I looked, and saw PNS Falcon 9 launch set for Monday night, and we were trying to arrange it for Monday. It was totally perfect!
@PearsonArtPhoto in the inner solar system video, are the Halley's Comet missions missing?
And then I double checked and it is now Thurs, and he was able to get a meeting on Thursday but I had already booked my flight back, and cannot stay. Gawl dang it! Closest I ever came to seeing a launch in my life.
So close. I will fly out before the launch, maybe we will fly over the area on the way out to see it on the pad. When do they close the airspace? 9PM EST launch, probably not till 1 hour out I imagine?
@Hobbes: I think one of them is, that I couldn't get an accurate location.
Actually, looks like 3 of them are missing... Sigh.
Although Vega 1 and 2 are pretty close to each other the whole time.
Look at May 16. You can see Vega 1 (Pretty inaccurate, but it was the best I have...) and Giotto.
ICE should be there, but is missing, sadly. Sigh.
Step 1 frame with , and .
It is MUCH easier to find data on modern missions (Except for Chinese missions, but that really is only Chang'e 2 plus to the Moon)
I thought I had ICE, but I might have missed including it accidentally because reasons...

ICE was included, but only in 2014.. Sigh.
And I don't have any source of data prior to that.
I didn't do as good of a job seeing which spacecraft gave very limited data as I should have.
Found a source for ICE (ISEE-3). Another fun coordinate conversion, but... Sigh.
I will add it to the list of things I will do if I do this again.
