That's no kidding! I'm having a blast pulling old books off the shelf and diving into "basic" math and physics. But boy am I rusty. Code up my equations and BLOOWY - division by zero all over the place. I just got some of it fixed, but the graphics for viewing needs more work. Trying to display stuff outside the viewing volume causes NAN (not a number) infinities.
But I think I'll stay hooked - no need to quit until I get my rocket engine to mars

I was reading about that in the Planetary Society rag. Seems like a great resource, I'll have to see how much work it really takes to set something up.
But the code has to work correctly first...
