Two new CD-ROMs are now available for anonymous ftp.  The first is
Volume 3 of the Voyagers to the Outer Planets series.  This contains
Uranus images, including the all images in the browse format (200 x 200).
I suggest that you get browse images first and then record the names of
the images that you would like to retrieve in full size.  Not all full size
images are on this disc.  Each of these two discs contains browse images for
about 2 other discs.  The second disc that is on-line is Volume 12 of the
Voyagers series and contains Neptune data, again including browse-sized
images.  Technical, machine readable descriptions of the discs may be found
in the file called voldesc.sfd on each disc.

And I would like to reiterate my earlier request that if you do use this data
in any report, publication, or formal presentation, that you make the following
credits:

For Voyager data:

Dr. Bradford A. Smith

For Magellan data:

Dr. Gordon H. Pettengill

And for all data:

Planetary Data System
National Space Science Data Center

Enjoy!

PS For those of you who missed the details of how to access these discs, you
need to use anonymous ftp to ames.arc.nasa.gov.  The CD-ROMs are mounted as
/pub/SPACE/CDROM and /pub/SPACE/CDROM2.  Use of the first CD-ROM drive is
