There are several good sites which provide an interesting introduction to the solar system: all are worth a look, although they can be rather slow at times.

• Views of the Solar System  at Los Alamos
• Welcome to the Planets  at JPL and a mirror site  in Cambridge, U.K.
• The Nine Planets

The obvious organisation to look at is NASA , which has many interesting Web pages. The European Space Agency, ESA also has a Web presence. There are many other, smaller, organisations with Web pages related to space, but these have been listed in the relevant sections of this page.

Some sites with pictures and/or movies about space:

• NASA's Photo Gallery and Video Gallery
• The Space Movie archive 
• The NSSDC Photo Gallery and Spaceborne Images  pages
• Stunning Hubble space telescope  images
• There's a site all about comet Hale-Bopp that has many images online
• A planetary image finder list  from NASA's Ames Center
• There are also lots of pictures in the tours listed above

NASA provides lot of information about Shuttle missions. The best place to start is the Shuttle home page , which has up to date information during missions, including times when you can see the Shuttle, pictures, movies and much more.

You can also go to the Kennedy Space Centre home page which has a lot of Shuttle and astronaut related information.

Some more advanced information, if you're interested in the details:

• The Space Physics textbook , still growing at the Space Physics Group in Oulu, Finland
• The Virtual Learning Center  from ISPEC
• The World Wide Web Virtual Library entry for Solar-Terrestrial Physics
• The Basics of Space Flight from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
