Rodolfo I think they were talking about the 28th and 29th days of this month; i.e. November 28th and November 29th. They have to be on the road home by December 10th or sooner. Here's an easier article at Space.com Japan's Asteroid Probe to Head Home Despite Glitch -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.
