For Macintosh and DOS/Windows

Over 200 images of the planets, moons, asteroids and comets

The NSSDC "Planetary Images" CD-ROM is now available. The CD contains images from NASA, ESA, and Soviet planetary spacecraft. The images and associated captions can be viewed using a self-contained Macromedia Director display program, or in a web-based format. The web version is also available on-line. All images are also on the CD in higher-resolution TIFF format. The images and captions on this CD-ROM are grouped by planetary body and further subgrouped by mission. The image identification numbers are given in parentheses at the end of the captions. Hard copies of the images can be ordered from NASA's National Space Science Data Center (NSSDC).
