So that's a landing about 10:12 (am) our time. Better have sky news on!

Cheers Deirdre

Wow, has it been that long??

Say, whatever happened to the Japanese asteroid landing attempt?

Poor old Genesis... Did I read somewhere that the Stardust landing was going to be into water? Not a Hollywood helicopter pilot in sight...

Also, I thought I read that the Japanese probe return was in jeopardy - I think communications were either gone or sporadic and they might have to leave it til 2010 or something like that...

My poor old memory...

By the way, Happy New year to you all!
