I'm looking for to-scale meshes for the following spacecraft/probes: -Mars Observer -Clementine Lunar Survey probe Meshes based on any of NASA's concept vehicles for -moon shuttle missions -moon bases -Earth orbit stations I am also looking for mercator projection , topographic elevation, or relief maps/textures of Mars, and the Moon. If you are a source, or know of a source, please reply via-email (preferred), or to this message. -Greg

Hi Greg, Vistapro v.3 CD-ROM has over 50% of the equatorial region of Mars mapped in the form of DEM landscape files. (800) 829-VRLI Paul S.

Paul, Thanks, I knew about VRLI's Mars DEM's. I wil be getting that for close up views. What I'm looking for is an image map of the entire planet for mapping onto a sphere for views of the entire planet from space. -Greg

Hi Greg, <<Planet maps>> the best place to go for good texmaps of the planets is NASA or JPL labs. (since they're the ones who took all the pics in the first place) I used some JPL maps of Jupiter and Io in an animation I did, and it came out great. I don't have the phone #'s with me now, but I will try to remember to post them on Monday. -Kyle
