# # A S T R O - F T P L I S T # Updated 7 March 1995 # # This is an extensive description of anonymous-ftp file servers containing # astronomy and space research related material. I have included only those # servers where there are special subdirectories for astro stuff or much # material included into a general directories. This list is not a complete # data set of possible places, so I would be very happy to receive notices # and information depending on this listing. Please inform me of any updates # or changes (mailto:astroftp@seds.lpl.arizona.edu). # The list is now maintained on a SQL database which permits much greater # flexibility in updating, re-formatting, and simultaneous creation of the # WWW and text versions. # I could not have done this without the help of Wenjeng Ko, my # supervisor/programming mentor at lpl.arizona.edu # # The latest version of this file is available via anonymous-ftp as: # # ftp://seds.lpl.arizona.edu/pub/faq/astroftp.txt # # There is also a HTML (World Wide Web) version of this document # which may be obtained at URL # # ftp://seds.lpl.arizona.edu/pub/faq/astroftp.html # # Updated by: Guy Kenneth McArthur astroftp@seds.lpl.arizona.edu # #-------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Server #IP Address # Alias (Available in next release) #IP Address # Directories #Contents #-------------------------------------------------------------------------- aaoepp2.aao.gov.au 192.231.167.64 /IMAGES Scanned images from the AAT telescope ames.arc.nasa.gov 128.102.18.3 /pub/GIF Several Voyager fly-by planetary images archive.afit.af.mil 129.92.1.66 /software/unix/xsky XSky (X-Windows Planetarium) /software/unix/xsat XSat (X-Windows Satellite Tracker) atari.archive.umich.edu 141.211.120.11 /atari/Applications/Astronomy Astronomy apps for Atari computers audrey.levels.unisa.edu.au 130.220.16.88 /space Launch manifests, records and other general info /space/APOLLO Apollo film transcripts and other info /space/AUSROC Australian Rocketry information aurora.arc.nasa.gov 128.102.21.2 /pub/quest_dist The QUEST package (estimates noise in data?) baboon.cv.nrao.edu 192.33.115.103 /pub/aips AIPS (Astronomical Image Processing System) /pub/aips++ AIPS++ Development blearg.larc.nasa.gov 128.155.3.58 /pub/techreports/larc NASA Langley technical reports bovine.uoregon.edu 128.223.21.104 /pub/sci_astro/images Large collection of quality CCD images and more /pub/catalogs Several obscure catalogs /pub/wmaps Latest weather maps;
