This anniversary almost passed us by...
February 8th 2004 was the date that saw the introduction of the forum that we all enjoy so much.
I just wanted to pass on my thanks to Doug Ellison for taking the brave (although he may sometimes think 'foolish') step of setting up the Unmanned Spaceflight forum.

For me, it has opened up - literally - an entire world of interaction with like-minded people.
The thoughts, knowledge and talents of the people on this forum continues to astound and delight me.
UMSF has become a daily habit (many times daily!) and I am proud to be both an enthusiastic contributor and an administrator in Doug's team.

Here's to last 5 years and many, many more Sols to come smile.gif

I segond all these comments!
Life changed 5 years ago and what a nice banner... even the date has been perfect wink.gif
I wonder if you can do what you used to do times to times, Doug: inform us of the number of hits, the most visited topic (I bet it's "Eduardo's" Oppy's route map), etc, etc...
Thanks so much
