NASA Press Release
APL press release Space.com Article Coming up... October: communications checks November: hydrazine loading and Atlas V countdown rehearsal December: integration with Atlas V January: LAUNCH! No pictures on the KSC webcams yet. But still pictures here. Is that the flight RTG attached to the spacecraft? Or just a dummy? |

QUOTE (mchan @ Oct 4 2005, 03:35 AM) In the latest PI update, Alan Stern describes NH's journey to KSC including a close encounter with a reckless driver. Frightening to think that the Pluto mission could have finished in a traffic crash. A meteorite in space w<ould be more romantic. The classification of reckless drivers encounters: First kind close encounter: just fear Second type close encouter: bolts and nuts smashed. Third type close encounter: humanoids injuried. |
