At 7 km/s, they travel 35 km in 5 seconds. <br /><br />Drawing a box around a 35 km long diagonal trajectory makes the box large, even if the line is thin. <br /><br />I will go to smaller, and thus more, time intervals. This makes the uncertainty caused by uncertain initial position and velocity visible, instead of the uncertainty in time (which I can control). <br /><br />This will eat many CPUs. <br /><br />Hope this makes any sense at all :)annomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609182613730196088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32272597.post-55815744626602631262010-11-24T09:59:56.658+01:002010-11-24T09:59:56.658+01:00Nice.

The uncertainty boxes become quite large towards the end, are you able to keep them smaller with more computing power?cybrbeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12794991440513730399noreply@blogger.com
