Well, I don't know about any of these things, but since this is a birthday thread I'll give my thoughts along those lines.
Voyager occupies a really special place with me. I can remember back to what passed as NASA - TV back then, I think it was V2's flyby of Saturn. I had just become old enough to know what the Voyagers were and what they were doing and I sat for days in front of the TV... watching the images come in just as the mission scientists did back at JPL. It launched a deep interest in astronomy (and later spaceflight itself) that's lasted and defined me ever since. Thank you Voyager.... here's to 30 MORE years! *raises glass* -------------------- - Matt
