A NASA mission is about to capture carbon-rich dust from a former water world
Maybe it's because JPL is about 15 minutes from here but....I LOVE THIS STUFF!
I'm a geek, I have-to like them.
@FearlessFly A very good friend (he's SUCH a geek) loves it, too. Every now & then, JPL has an open house for the public and I got tickets to take Samer. It was wonderful to watch him turn into the proverbial child in the proverbial candy store! He still talks about it!
I'll confess I fell absolutely in love with the Cassini replica they had in the lobby! If something like that can generate affection....Cassini did!
