Great work Mike, congrats from JSC.

Thank you and as Guru says, all the very best with RTF. We'll be watching for another success for the NASA family. God Speed Discovery.

I'll say one thing. There's a huge amount of interest in these topics of probes and especially Deep Impact. I've never seen early morning demand for news....we're Shuttle specific, yet seemed to have a solid amount of interest over two hours - on a holiday day in the US and late night West Coast, middle of the night EST, early morning UK time.

This thread is only 300 views or so, but the news page (always seems to get the page impressions for some reason, rather than the forum) was being hit at 100 views a minute for a solid amount of time earlier (and we didn't do anything near as good coverage as some sites - given it's not really out mandate).

I think the mission is interesting and they had a easy to understand way of getting people interested in it with the öne bullet trying to hit a second with  third"line they've used. It's just a technological tour de force (as is the shuttle).

On TV here last night they had one Nasa spokesman saying "well, out there now is a comet that is asking "what the hell was that?!""

Did you get a name to who that spokesman was?

No. 40ish, only had a short back-and-sides that would need trimming on his head, no glasses, slim.

Yeah, doesn't cut it down.
