The Cassini-Huygens web team at NASA built an image browser, along the lines of the one at the Planetary Photojournal, to help us sort through the hundreds of raw images the spacecraft sends back from Saturn.
You can select from Cassini’s two cameras, any of the objects it photographed during the roundabout trip (including Venus, Earth, and Jupiter,) images from a day or range of days, and by distance to the subject.
It’d be nice to get some sort of feedback on the results while you’re constructing the query, updating the form with a sample thumbnail of the target, and the number of expected results. The rough sizes of result sets could be baked into the static form with each database update.
I hope NASA’s web team will create a similar browser for the Mars Rover images.
Oh, and can we get an RSS feed of press-release images?
