Not sure what you meant to say there Climber. I'm certainly neither a "Friend in a High Place" or an undercover staffer from any space mission. Looking at Alan Stern's CV I think I'd have some trouble meeting the standard.

Looking at Alan Stern's CV I think I'd have some trouble meeting the standard. Ooooooops : I did a copy intended to paste in : "Planetary scientist says: Focus on Europa"... So, I re-paste it there now so, you'll get the point then! Sorry. -------------------- |

If I can drag this thread back on topic: Phil Plait aka The Bad Astronomer has a nice encomium on Alan's "promotion."
