Tibbz2 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Ah I was wondering what had happened to it, there was an article in January I think saying it only had enough Helium left for a few weeks, but it seems to have lasted a few months rather than weeks! However it's a shame that it's finished now, one of ESAs greatest achievements imo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Yep, a huge achievement. The data they've stored will be a goldmine of new discoveries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tibbz2 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Yeah would have been better if they could, but I guess they had to make the design choices best at the time etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
