I dusted off my copy of the Feb 2008 issue of Discover Magazine, which has a nice article on DAWN for a layman like myself. It traces the stories of Russel and McCord, the two lead investigators. You really have to take care of your health and live a long, long time to see a mission like this come to fruition from its inception!
I'm excited all over again about Ceres, with its possible underground ocean. Adding to that tantalizing notion, the following article in that Feb 2008 issue is one postulating that life may have originated in extreme cold, rather than warm conditions. |
