Astro-Viz Folks,

I'm happy to announce that my DVD course is now available
from the Teaching Company. In my course, I present 24 half-hour
lectures on the solar system, with emphasis on the new perspectives
we have gained in the last few decades (some of which led to
the reclassification of Pluto). The course is titled "New
Frontiers: Modern Perspectives on Our Solar System".

The course contains lots of cool astronomy images and
visualizations. I'd like to thank the folks here on this list who
may have worked on data from the many solar system missions
and especially those who make them publicly available. At
STScI, I like to say that we get paid to give away cool visuals
for others to use. In this case, I'm on the receiving end, and
my sincere thanks to all.

If you haven't heard of them, the Teaching Company is the leader
in college level courses for the home market, and are very selective
about their professors. The other astronomy courses are taught by
Alex Filippenko, Neil Tyson, and Sean Carroll.

Currently, my course is featured on the front page of the
Teaching Company catalog, and on the home page of their web
site:

After it leaves the home page, my course can be found here:
