Tweedledee Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 Does anyone else find it refreshing to see so many highly intelligent and articulate female scientists (of any age) in these programmes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Haha....an early shift !! Less than 5 hours sleep last night. And.....true to form i nodded off at about 9:35 and woke up as the credits were rolling ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithysteve Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 What an incredibly successful spacecraft, after twenty years it was still working so well. The level of skill of the mission control staff and the scientists etc were very impressive. They understandably showed a level of grief and loss now the mission has finished, some of them have spent 20+ years on this project...! ?

Yes it was a great triumph in every respect and they still have years of data to work on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I'll have to get this on catch up, I love anything to do with Cassini. It does seem to have quietened the Juno mission though, not heard much from that. Hopefully they can move centre stage now and show us some amazing Jupiter images.
