Only 78 days to Stein encounter ! I can't believe I forgot about this event.

Stardust is still on route for another flyby with Tempel-1 ( a comet - I know ), which was impacted by Deep Impact in July 2005.
The latter spacecraft couldn't observe the impact crater due to the dust & debris flying away from the comet, so Stardust will take a look in the year 2011... |
