... We present two new applications that engage the network as a tool for astronomical research and/or education. The first is a VRML server which allows users over the Web to interactively create three-dimensional visualizations of FITS images contained in the NCSA Astronomy Digital Image Library (ADIL). ... The VRML Server tool allows a user to interactively create 3D visualizations of astronomical images found in the ADIL. The visualizations are returned to the user as VRML files. ...
