Masursky en 3D: posición y órbita en directo

Un asteroide del cinturón principal de unos 11 kilómetros, fotografiado por la sonda Cassini en 2000, rumbo a Júpiter y Saturno.Masursky se muestra en su posición real, calculada a partir de las efemérides NASA/JPL. La vista se abre sobre Masursky; puede viajar en el tiempo, alternar entre la vista general educativa y el viaje a escala real, y compararlo con todos los demás cuerpos del sistema solar.
