Re: SF Valley -- My McMansion will be on the approaching side of Endeavour. In Mars gravity, maybe I could hit a golf ball all the way to Stu's Crater!

I anticipate that driving, as well as official site updates (and maybe even site access), will take a hiatus for lack of (fiscal) fuel. Let's hope for a very short pause.
REMINDER: no debates about the underlying cause. Just wanted to alert our non-US readers that barring unforeseen changes, all non-essential US Government functions stop tonight until funding issues are resolved. -------------------- Jonathan Ward

Let's hope for a very short pause. Maybe not: "Because JPL is managed by the California Institute of Technology, its employees are NASA contractors, not civil servants; they would be expected to work through a shutdown, JPL spokeswoman Jane Platt said April 8. "We will keep working," she said." http://www.space.com/11344-nasa-government...00-workers.html Edit: Scott's not sounding worried   Per-sol drive distance limits lifted for Opportunity -- and we have a sol coming up where we can take advantage of that. Maybe 160m/sol! |
