introduces
the
user
to
Hyperion,
a

This single-page website introduces the concept of radar mapping, from planes or satellites, of the surface of the Earth despite cloud cover. It does so via an activity which involves attempting to determine the shape of an object inside a box into which one cannot see. Probes, such as knitting needles, are allowed as sensors.

This
site
provides
a
discussion
of
movement
on
the
surface
of
Io,
a
satellite
of
Jupiter.
It
makes
comparisons
between
ground
movement
on
Io,
where
the
ground
itself
moves
up
and
down
like
an
elevator
taking
people
to
the
top
and
bottom
of
a
30-story
building,
and
the
earth,
where
similar
ground
tides
cause
total
movements
of
only
8
inches.
Galileo

and
its
