Acknowledgements

GV was written by Henry Throop. The main engine was developed in IDL, while the web interface uses PHP, JavaScript, Perl & csh, totalling around 40,000 lines (more details). Library routines to read the star catalogs were developed in collaboration with Leslie Young and Cathy Olkin, and supported by the NSF. Some of the star catalog routines make use of Doug Mink's WCSTools libraries. Routines for Pluto I/F supplied by Marc Buie. Development of GV was supported by the New Horizons mission, with additional support from Rosetta, Cassini, Juno, LRO, and JUICE.
