Fantastic - thanks! That led me to xplanet and celestia:
http://xplanet.sourceforge.net/
http://celestia.sourceforge.net/
both of which look rather awesome. Now to work out if the museum has any
classic hardware with enough CPU power and framebuffer ability to run
them...
I think the SGI Indy's the only machine we've got with anything better
than an 8 bit colour display, but I'd probably have to use it as a
remote display to something with a little more horsepower. Hmmm...
cheers
