I think is time to start this new topic, now that Dawn is more than half-way in the transition from HAMO to LAMO (as showed in the plot below).

I suspect that the news conference is timed to coincide with DAWN results being printed in this week's upcoming issue of Science. I went to the lecture at Caltech last week and Carol Raymond mentioned the publication, and artfully dodged at least one question from the audience that apparently would have prematurely revealed something that will be included in the articles.
I have been collecting the "special issues" of Science on the planetary missions for the last 20 years. The articles are a bit of a tough read compared to something more mainstream like Scientific American, but it just makes me feel a bit closer to the real discovery process. For anyone not aware of it, you can locate back issues at http://www.sciencemag.org/content/by/year. And, after a lot of searching, you can find how to order issues at: http://www.sciencemag.org/site/help/readers/order.xhtml For some reason I have had mixed sucess with the online forms, sometimes I get acess and can do it online, and sometimes end up with a hard copy PDF file instead. When that happens I just call the toll free number and do it the old fashion "talk to someone" way. |
