Send Your Name to the Asteroid Belt

[telfrow]

<i>Send your name to the asteroid belt on the Dawn spacecraft. Your name will be recorded onto a microchip that will be placed aboard the spacecraft accompanying it on its mission to the asteroid belt.

I'm on board <img src="/images/icons/cool.gif" />. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="3" color="#ff9900"><p><font size="1" color="#993300"><strong><em>------------------------------------------------------------------- </em></strong></font></p><p><font size="1" color="#993300"><strong><em>"I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical. Unsuccessful rebellions, indeed, generally establish the encroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions as not to discourage them too much. It is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government."</em></strong></font></p><p><font size="1" color="#993300"><strong>Thomas Jefferson</strong></font></p></font> </div>

<blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr /><p>Speaking of lack of knowledge, ... what is Dawn riding on?<p><hr /></p></p></blockquote><br /><br />Dawn will be taking a ride on a Delta II--it's launch <b><i>was</i></b> scheduled for June 2006 but due to budget cuts and "workforce shortages" it <b><i>had</i></b> been delayed till at least early 2007. But this report came out a few weeks ago http://www.space.com/missionlaunches/051107_dawn_qown.html saying nasa has instructed the mission to "stand down". Doesn't look good, just hope it doesn't get cancelled. I want my name in the asteriod belt! <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />

Big <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /><br /><br />This parental instinct and love thing is amazing - it overcomes our selfishness, and has us putting them first in so many ways.<br /><br />Wayne <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>
