we need the zipped form of x3d, for large files

but the specs have a funny kind of zip working per-field. I think it should be a standard .zip of a folder/directory with image resources, extern protos and .x3d scene, like googleEarth's .kmz. This would allow the x3d-over-dae (collada) idea to jive with kml-over-dae of googleEarth.

The international space station ISS has a lot of twitter followers. Here's an X3D model of ISS
http://dug9.users.sourceforge.net/web3d/tests/NASA/ISS.x3d
To make it I downloaded a .3ds model from NASA
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/3d_resources/
and converted it by importing into Blender and exporting to .x3d
If someone is doing some kind of follow-the-astronaut website, web3d could be used, perhaps with SSR (server-side rendering) for mobile and x-platform no-installation viewing.
