I can't quite believe that the Galileo spacecraft is gone.

My dad started working on the project around the time I was born, so I don't remember ever not hearing about it. He's still working on it now, but the spacecraft has now been reduced to it's component atoms. I like what Jessica wrote about it, and that these people have written an opera from Galileo's point of view.

September 21st was also my birthday. Happy birthday to me!
