Animations: the files

Solar system may be seen through animations made from the images sent by the space probes, by observing satellites or from ground-based telescopes.
Of course, the real motions in the Solar system seem to be slow and the animations are accelerated.
The links towards specific animation files are designated by all along the Tour.
You will find hereafter the list of the files of animations proposed on our site as well as informations on the means for visualize them.
The links below provide a direct access to the specific files of animation.
You will find links to the pages including these animations by clicking here.
