Helllo, I've been watching the shuttle today on NASA TV, via the Internet. You can go to my web page and see the location of NASA TV on the internet, as well as the latest schedule. I was watching it with my $21.95/month AOL connection. 28.8k runs like real-time video; refresh rate well below a second. But the resolution was quite low. But the 56k connection was good resolution, but the refresh rate was like one frame for every five seconds! So, I just happen to decide to fire up my Juno web connection (absolutely free!), and the refresh rates for both the 28.8k and the 56k are the same! Basically full-motion video in real-time! I mention this, because I would think that others are irritated by the low refresh rates at the NASA TV web site. If you want faster connections (for up to 56k modems), then get Juno! Go to www.juno.com to get the software. I don't work for Juno, and won't get anything if you do sign up (yes, absolutely no fees! They make money by advertising. While on the Web, there will always be a quite small rectangular bar - but it really isn't much of a nuisance), but if you want to see NASA TV the way it was meant to be, without irritation and laziness, then you know what to do. NASA TV is great!! ================================================================ Jonathan T. Wojack tlj18@juno.com Stay up-to-date on all events in space!
