I thought about a new thread since there are possibilities of an incredible future mission.
The idea is to know what would people like to see on a mission like that, nature of probes, instruments, experiments...you name it! -------------------- "Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied, "If you seek for Eldorado!"

Greg, the implications of this are incredible! It's like we've been swimming against the current so far... Off topic question, will an object free from Earth's gravitacional attraction, head to some particular direction? Will it end its journey in the Sun? -------------------- "Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied, "If you seek for Eldorado!"

...of course, in Mac spell. But the more compelling question is: Should it be "en-sel-a-dus" or "en-kel-a-dus"?
