Today a tip for all committing friends of real astronautics,
who wants to render some own scenes, with real (actual and/or historic)
spacecrafts.

The free OpenSource space-simulationprogramm "Celestia" contains
a lot of .3ds-models of real spacecrafts (i.e. Apollo, Skylab, Hubble, Mir,
ISS) and real planets/moons, asteroids etc.  in an excellent quality
(more models can be found on the  "Celestia"-Homepage at:
http://www.celestiamotherlode.net/ ). This models can be easy converted
into POV and make the creation of your own  space-scenes with real
spacecrafts much more easier.


And here for example, is the converted "cassini" spacecraft.

Nice but but it is flying through the atmosphere?
And Huygens is gone?

Falling is equivalent to flying for some time before impact. As to how
it got to a planet with a blue sky, aliens did it.

Good find Meothuru. Any plans to expand on the image?
