Posted by CowboyNeal on from the look-what-we-done dept.

Mark Leaman writes "The Science Museum of Minnesota has just announced an online community site for scientific visualization, including thier Open 3D Visualization Toolkit that includes Blender and the GIMP as part of the core development tools. Frustrated with a lack of consolidated resources and discussion about open-source, scientific visualization development tools, the Science Museum of Minnesota's Learning Technologies Department decided to develop their own."

    The 3D flat images are nice, but I want to spin it, go into it,etc. as far as I want, not a preset unchangable series of flats.
