A space capsule holding atoms collected from solar wind fell to a crash landing on Earth Wednesday after its parachute failed. A pair of helicopters helmed by stunt pilots had been ready to help snatch the refrigerator-sized capsule’s parachute with a hook during its descent. But there was no sign that the parachute opened, and video from the scene showed the 400-pound capsule buried in the ground at the Dugway Proving Ground in Utah. The…

Stardust

Stardust 01/09/2004 09:57 PM
Close-up images of comet Wild 2 were taken by the Stardust spacecraft on Jan. 2, and NASA released 2 of them this week. The spacecraft flew within 149 miles of the comet, 242 million miles from Earth. Stardust has been overshadowed by the Mars Exploration Rover, but I find it just as impressive, if not even more so. Now I'm looking forward to the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft, which will reach Saturn on July 1.

StarDust Captures Star Dust! 01/03/2004 07:09 PM
New Scientist.com says that the robotic space probe StarDust survives daring comet fly-by. StarDust flew through the tail of comet Wild-2 and was pelted with bullet fast rocks and survived! The Stardust mission in addition to catching minute partices of the coment in its aerogel tennis racket- like mitten, it also took some great photos of comet Wild-2. Now that Stardust has captured some comet particles, it is now on its long journey home with its payload to land in the Utah desert (yes, back to Earth) sometime in 2006. Hopefully, StarDust will survive the landing. Also, don't forget that tomorrow, hopefully, we'll find out of the Spirit Rover survived Mars!

I guess I am into domesday scenarios, and think if you are going to spend money to fire a projectile at a comet then why not fire a nuke at it and see what effect that has. Instead they plan on making a mini crater on the comet and looking at the dust. I suppose a nuke would defeat their plan to look at the dust created by the impact. [ZDNet]
