Nice! Looks like just the sort of thing I'd start to study while waiting for my dinner to cool down, and then wonder half an hour later why I was still hungry...
How very cool, thanks for sharing that! I wish it was bigger; even at this size it's fascinating. I was thinking about the mathmatics of slingshot navigation just a few days ago, and here it is, live and in color! (Okay, detailed and in color.) What a great gift, enjoy!
A chart like that listing the delta-V necessary to go from planet to planet would be awesome. Especially if we forced every SF author to hang one over their desk.
You mean a schematic like this? It could only help. It would be nice to also give them some idea how deep gravity wells are; the two charts are not obviously similar to everyone.
