Hello everyone. I just downloaded the latest update for the Microsoft World Wide Telescope.Its seems now we can rotate planets and zoom in on the surface....except Saturn. I really wanted to take a look at the hexagon on the north pole but it seems it wont let me. You can see the far side of the moon and get really close to mars.I thinking of sending an e-mail to ask is there any reason why I can't rotate Saturn like the rest. Saturn is not even on the selection of the planets that you can pick you have to type in the name to look at it.
And what the heck is a Mandelbrot Sphere? It's listed where the planets/moon selection is.It looks like a red ball with that mandlebrot symbol thingie on the face.
