It has certainly been a long time--over a year--since the last one of these. I almost forgot how to write one. Again--and acknowledging that I'm essentially inviting Gerald to go nuts again--I solicit comments and questions on this essay, which discuss the effect of planetary gravity on comets and spacecraft. As identified by Newton, of course. http://astro.isi.edu/games/ The title is in the subject line. -- Brian Tung <brian@isi.edu > The Astronomy Corner at http://astro.isi.edu/ Unofficial C5+ Home Page at http://astro.isi.edu/c5plus/ The PleiadAtlas Home Page at http://astro.isi.edu/pleiadatlas/ My Own Personal FAQ (SAA) at http://astro.isi.edu/reference/faq.html
