Fantastic new movie made by New Horizons data, showing the giant planet rotating:

Also, for news about the findings by NH in the Jupiter flyby (Stern's said periodic releases are expected frequently for the next 2-3 months) at http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/index.php. Among them, this nice photo of Jupiter's rings: http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/gallery/missionPhotos/pages/030907.html
They're being a bit slow posting updates lately, and the released images resolution is quite crappy, but maybe it's because they've got so much data to analyse.
rdale - 13/3/2007 1:18 PMThat's a pretty wide-open question, anything more specific?

Kayla - 17/3/2007 9:14 AMSadly, NASA has scrapped the center piece of the robotic lunar exploration, LPRP (Lunar Precursor Robotic Program), due to funding short falls in the ARES/ORION program. LPRP would have truly set the stage for returning people to the moon to work.
Argosy - 26/4/2007 7:47 AMAre there any indications of the so-called Pioneer effect/anomally? I remember, I may be wrong, that it all started around Saturn on the Pioneers?
