[Besselian elements](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Besselian_elements) are available on all NASA eclipse pages ([example](http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEbeselm/SEbeselm2001/SE2015Mar20Tbeselm.html)). Using these data (as opposed to surface-level derived track data) will allow for more accurate umbral shadow tracing, more accurate...
Even with improvements to the UI to increase intuitive usage a help/orientation dialog would assist users who have very little experience with the concepts and technologies in play on the...
Generate a special CZML that is not time/date specific and shows all available tracks (just paths of totality; no umbral shadow animations) with dates labeled. Bonus points to make those...
Presently navigation is simply not rendered for viewports under 640px wide. A better approach would be to render the navigation column off canvas with slide-in/slide-out animation typical of modern mobile...
While the "shadow" and track show where totality happens immediately outside one may see a sun partially obscured by the moon to varying degrees. It should be feasible to render...
To reproduce: ``` javascript var carbon9 = new Nucleus(matter.elements[6].nuclides[3]).appendTo(d3.select("svg")); carbon9.alphaDecay().betaDecay(); ``` Chaining alpha and beta decays together on a Carbon-9 nucleus _should_ result in a Lithium-5 (three protons, two neutrons)...
With the recent addition of the Nucleus class that simplified Orbit class is now defunct. It needs to be replaced with something to better model electron orbitals that hopefully can...
Presently the beta decay method in the nuclide class does an oversimplified form of beta-minus decay, generating only a single electron in addition to the neutron. As decay mode data...
With the Nucleus class now in place, able to turn a nuclide into an interactive representation of an atomic nucleus with built-in decay methods, the application is ready to ingest...
The [IAEA Interactive Chart of Nuclides](https://www-nds.iaea.org/relnsd/vcharthtml/VChartHTML.html) affords the user standard scroll-to-zoom/drag-to-move capabilities. The `nuclides` layout should do this too, probably by way of a clip path for the stage.
