They're actually just screenshots of 3D models. If you download and install the Celestia program you can install those two add-ons from the celestia motherlode website and view them much the same as google earth. pan. zoom. rotate, etc.

It's a pretty neat program/tool

It's perfectly "safe", if that's your concern randyv.

Here's some info from their wikibook's page:
en.wikibooks.org...

Celestia provides photo-realistic, real-time, three-dimensional viewing of the solar system, the galaxy and the universe. It is an easy to use, freely-distributed, multi-platform, open source, software package which has become a valuable tool for astronomy education. Used in homes, schools, museums and planetariums around the world, it also is used as a visualization tool by space mission designers. Versions are available for computers running Windows, Macintosh (Mac OS X) and Linux operating systems.
Although it is optimized for 3D astronomical visualization, Celestia can be used to display and explore other 3D environments, too.
And, for some reason, many people seem to find exploring with Celestia to be a lot of fun.


I'm not sure just when I happened across the site/program, but I always find myself checking back from time to time to see what new user-created add-ons are available.

Careful, though, you think ATS can be addicting.

Just you saying I should. That right there tells me it's safe. My memory is low. (all red faced). That's the only thing.
