“A Spacecraft For All” was a Chrome Experiment - a series showcasing web technologies and the capabilities of the Chrome browser.
In this case we were demonstrating WebGL - and it’s abilities to overlay interactive 3D graphics over streaming video to create an innovative mini-documentary about the ISEE-3 spaceprobe.
This craft had been launched by NASA in the 1970s and since lost in the solar system. A group of space enthusiasts, engineers and scientists had launched a crowdfunded effort to contact, reboot and in effect salvage the spacecraft to turn it into an open access space-science platform.
