Just been mooching about, trying to find the name of that spacecraft that was launched to visit Mercury, and I found this:

That's a superb site Dave, and I hadn't seen it before. Bookmarked! The spacecraft is called Messenger, but you know that by now. 8)

Yes, it is a really good site, Clive. I've been looking through it all evening, and I recognise some of the pages, so I think I must have been on sections of it at earlier times, probably clicking on Google searches.
I've also found another, but it doesn't seem to have been updated for some time:

What's nice about http://www.nineplanets.org/ is that every page states when it was last updated. It's really useful to have that information since new discoveries about these objects are being made all the time. :) I hadn't realised you had such an interest in astronomy Dave. 8)

I'm nowhere near as expert as you are, Clive, but I do find space exploration fascinating. :)

Oh you've done it now, Dave. ::) ;D ;D
