Special Notes

The information in this tour represented the current thinking as of early August 1997. Since then, in light of new data, theories may have evolved. For the latest theories, see the Pathfinder science pages.

The video/audio pages of this tour will require special software (RealAudio or RealPlayer) that is available for free downloading. The quality of the playback will be highly dependent on the performance of your computer and the speed of your network/modem connection. In many cases, older systems will be unable to support playback.

If you are running the latest Web browser that supports JavaScript on a computer with a lot of memory, then visit this enhanced version of the Virtual Tour by Digital Equipment Corporation .
