Appendix B:

Mirrors of

The Nine Planets

Copies of The Nine Planets are maintained at more than 50 different locations around the world in addition to my primary site at SEDS. Selecting one of the links below will take you to the Table of Contents page at the corresponding site; all subsequent pages will be read from that site, too. Please use the one most "local" to you; in many cases that will greatly speed up your access time and save network bandwidth, too. (You may click on the map above or simply browse the lists below.) Note, however, that some of these are not updated as frequently as the main site at SEDS.

The Nine Planets has been translated into French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovenian, Norwegian, Dutch, Danish, German, Chinese, and Japanese.

The Nine Planets has also been coded into a Windows 95 application by MP Brown.

The Nine Planets - For Kids is a special version of The Nine Planets for younger folks.

A French translation of The Nine Planets with a different and very nice look has been done by Arnaud Riess.
