about this website

ars astronautica was re-launched in December 2008.

The website has been developed in Dreamweaver. The design is based on the Deja Vu CSS layout extension from Project Seven. Also, the image galleries use Project Seven's Lightshow Magic extension which has been modified to accept dynamic images from a PHP/MySQL database which I designed.

The Space Quotes and the Texts and Publications section are a custom built PHP/MySQL applications which incorporate a number of Dreamweaver extensions from DMXzone.

Likewise the Blog section which also incorporates a RSS feed.

Arthur Woods, December 2008

"Many, and some of the most pressing, of our terrestrial problems can be solved only by going into space. Long before it was a vanishing commodity, the wilderness as the preservation of the world was proclaimed by Thoreau. In the new wilderness of the Solar System may lie the future preservation of mankind."
 
Arthur C. Clarke
