Hello...
Nice to meet you all again. I wondered what happened to the MAPUG group...
but I found it again!!!
I am running a very popular web site (which some of you may remember from
August - it has changed since than) which has this kind of data on the sun,
and the other planets too.
If you would like to view this data, go to
http://www.ozemail.com.au/~pudney/Woodlands/ - Netscape 2.0 recommended -
Let me know what you think of the sun/planet data.
