Archive-name: sts-26/19-Mar-90 Original-posting-by: henryc@cs.umr.edu (Henry Clark) Original-subject: STS26 program now available for anonymous ftp Archive-site: mcs213k.cs.umr.edu [131.151.6.11] Reposted-by: emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti) Finally, I now have for anonymous ftp on mcs213k.cs.umr.edu (131.151.6.11) a working copy of STS-26, a program for PC's which Greg Roberts had mentioned awhile back. STS-26 is a program which allows you to enter some parameters such as inclination of orbit and follow the shuttle around the earth. I just ran it and its actually quite a decent little program. Its draws a map of the earth and then plots a line around it, just like the real space guys do in Texas. Remember that binary programs work better when ftp'd in binary mode. If you have any problems, please drop me a note.
