Post by: Fury_of_a_Seraph on April 03, 2004, 07:29:36 pm

Well, who are these planet making ppl 1st? I have a dyna project for them.

We need hardpointing done OUTSIDE the mesh. We want to see if point defense like phaser 3's will fire from the equator...

That is done by university students taken by planetary flyby spacecraft. That stuff is directly tangible to the types of studies and educational material NASA is outlined to do. Maybe thats why they are also involved. That sort of study and education is important.

So STFU.

Absolutely.  If it wasn't for this kind of involvement in higher than higher education, this kind of research would be incredibly slowed if done at all... and this is more necessary than people realize; we do really have to understand how at least this solar system works, for our own (safety's) sake, if nothing else!

Right, now lets not hijack this thread. Ravok needs to just stfu and dont smack talk about stupid [bleep] in the models forum when it belongs under its own topic in the ot forum.

Here one link on makeing a planet. http://home.hetnet.nl/~whiteeagleonline/Tutorials/eng_planeet.htm

And here is another http://photoshopresource.com/howto/photoshop.htm

There doesnt seem to be a whole lot out there as most just grab picturs from the nasa site and use those.
