@NightBazaar - I always keep a set of 3D glasses handy, but they're easily obtainable online. I think a few places even send out one cardboard pair for free.
@djxatlanta I've got 2 or 3 csrdboard pairs that came along with some 3-D comics from years & years ago. They're still in excellent shape, and come in handy when videos like this, or 3-D images of Mars, etc., show up online.
@NightBazaar - plenty of 3D images of Vesta on NASA's Planetary Photojournal website and lots of 3D images of Mars at hirise [dot] lpl [dot] arizona [dot] edu [slash] anaglyph and sci [dot] esa [dot] int [slash] marsexpress (each of the regular pics contain 3D versions)
@AsymptoteInverse - Fortunately, I foresee a time when there will be a number of alternate 3D display options to combat those who have difficulties with stereopsis, monocular vision or total blindness. Perhaps one day stereo imaging can be beamed directly into the brain's visual cortex via a special helmet; or stereo video can be translated directly into a haptic monitor... I'm sure your challenges are being worked on and will be overcome -- if not for you, then for those that follow. =)
@djxatlanta Actually, in my experience, you don't even need to get as fancy as that. Since my condition is congenital, my brain's figured out other ways to gauge depth, and so I find when two video streams with a decent amount of parallax between them are interleaved and flash pretty quickly, it looks like how I always imagine stereovision would. If I had more technical skills, I could probably rig something up with a video headset. :)
Glad I saved my old 3-D specs

It's at times like these I wish I wasn't stereoblind...
