Cool Video

January 25, 2007 6:20 PM

NASA next month is launching a mission called THEMIS, Aurora_1 to study the auroras that form near the north and south poles.  If you've never seen an aurora, they're cooler than any still picture can show. 

But almost as cool is the computer animation NASA has put together for the launch.  Trying to keep up with the times, perhaps, they've posted it on YOUTUBE.

Cool video indeed, and a great example of computer animation!
