@CamIAmSo Thanks for the fantastic comment. It really makes making the videos worth while when people enjoy them as much as you do. :O)

Just to clear something up... My name is Derek Harrigan (AggManUK). I made these for my son Sol Harrigan, who will be 7 years old in July 2011. :O) I like the thought of being classed as an awsome dad though!!! So glad you enjoy them so much, please feel free to spread the word. All the best to you, always! :O)

you have very good info on the moon.. its really helping me to form my novel into the way i think works best.

[AggManUK]

Thats great! I hope when your finished, you can send me a copy of your book. All the best & best of luck! :o)

Does it mean that we don't have actual images of Triton? Only Voyager stuff?

What about our powerful telescopes?

[AggManUK]

Voyager is the only probe to get close so far. :O( There will be more in the future though. If you google "actual images of Triton" you will see almost every image available right now on the JPL site. They are pretty cool. :O)

RIP Triton

[TheMidnightCootie]

Wow! This video is absolutely stunning! I have a report on good ol' Triton coming up in my astronomy class, and I was wondering if I could show this video? I'm sure the class would love it! And I'm sure a few others who are doing reports on other planets would love to use your other videos as reference, so I'd be sure to direct them all to your beautiful channel! Thanks for everything! ^_^

You should be working on movies dude!!

[MrMaboboz]

i cried a little...

[nanchuanwushu1]

@Djelomou Exactly. Only Voyager stuff exists so far. Earth-based telescopes can't take images or videos of such a small (due to the distance between Earth and Neptune) object like Triton. Even with an optical telescope of 20-30 meters of diameter is somewhat small to take the clearest, sharpest image of Triton possible. That's why they send spacecraft there. Imagine for example how an optical telescope with - say - 100 meters of diameter would cost.. at least twice the cost of a spacecraft.

wow, breath taking...

[JulianGardna]

Wonderful video: I felt like being there.

[MrSmithDynamite]

Wow, I amaze your videos. I don't know where you get the great amount of info but it's very fascinating.
