My #planetarium is ready for the upcoming #BetterKnowAnAsteroid holiday, April 20. The Lucy spacecraft will fly by a smallish main belt #asteroid named Donaldjohanson. For this #astroviz, I made full use of SPICE kernels to control the 3D model. Always happy to shine a light on #TeamAsteroid!
Fin. (But for the curious, see alt text on the previous post's images for some observing caveats.)
If this reaches interested #planetarium folks, aside from the videos and images linked to here, all #astroviz was done in Digistar. I'm happy to share any scripts you'd find useful!
My artist’s reconstruction of the star WOH G64, the first star outside our galaxy to be imaged in close-up. It is located at a staggering distance of over 160 000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud. #astronomy #astro #astroviz
