So use the Dundee Uni "quicklook" first to a) see if the image is
worth the download and b) give the pass time better than trying to
guesstimate it from the global orbital maps.


Yet again I have taken the liberty of cropping two bits out and enhancing
the GB part:

That is still about 1.9MB though so about 6 minutes on a 56k modem.

The second image shows the snow cover over Iceland, except for the northern

That is about 300KB.
