Luna Corp LunaCorp created several projects that engaged the public's interest in space, and that were aimed at enabling direct participation in space exploration. It was founded in 1989 and was dissolved in 2003 after working with NASA, the Russian space agency and commercial sponsors on visionary projects. The company's former president, David Gump, is now CEO of Transformational Space Corp.

Deep Space Network - Table of Contents
The photographs in this album hang in the fourth-floor hallway of Building 303
at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California. In order to make them
available to a wider audience, we have created this album. In addition to all
of the facilities of the Deep Space Network, we have included photos of Parkes
Radio Observatory, Australia, and the Very Large Array, Socorro, New Mexico.
These two great radio observatories have collaborated and augmented the Network
on some very special science events, namely, the Voyager encounters with Uranus
and Neptune, and the Giotto rendezvous with Comets Halley and Grigg-Skjellerup.

Celestia: A 3D Space Simulator: "Celestia is a free real-time space simulation that lets you experience our universe in three dimensions. Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia doesn't confine you to the surface of the Earth. You can travel throughout the solar system, to any of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy. All travel in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets you explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters down to spacecraft only a few meters across. A 'point-and-goto' interface makes it simple to navigate through the universe to the object you want to visit. "
