Cassini, 1 year gone. We were small kids when it launched, We’ll be old aged or possibly deceased by the time anything is sent back.

LOOKING FORWARD: The Europa Clipper

Of all the missions to launch in the 2020′s, the clipper is the one I am eager for. The mission will be more than a lander,knowing JPL if they’re going to go all the way out to Jupiter you know they’ll do more to make the trip worth it (Voyager wasn’t supposed to go to Uranus or Neptune). I think the orbital side of the mission will be like Cassini all over again, and hopefully avenge what was lost in the 90′s when the Galileo spacecraft high gain antenna didn’t deploy 

(Solid dishes do it better)

I can’t wait for the new swag either, hopefully JPL’s giftshop will actually SELL them. I hate hunting pins on Ebay that cost more than they should.(Personal problems, sorry)

Jupiter YOU’RE NEXT!!!!
