QUOTE (Adam @ Sep 24 2005, 01:06 PM) I envy all of you. Assuming nothing goes wrong during launch or the cruise to Pluto or a KBO, your names will literally travel 'across the stars' (to borrow the title of one of John Williams' music themes from, um, Star Wars Episode II). A million years from now, that is. -------------------- 2011 JPL Tweetup photos: http://www.rich-parno.com/aa_jpltweetup.html

A million years from now, that is. Actually they will all be gone, destroyed by cosmic radiation, in about 200 years, tops. -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |

QUOTE (ljk4-1 @ Oct 26 2005, 06:31 AM) ? Well- Nice to know your names will be traveling across the stars for at least 100 years. And NH should obviously be out of the solar system within 50 years. -------------------- 2011 JPL Tweetup photos: http://www.rich-parno.com/aa_jpltweetup.html
