Hey Fellow Fox 5'ers!

Now that you have sent your name to go to the Moon, how about looking at the "Family" Album. Family that is in the way of our fellow planets, asteroids, moons and other members of the Sun's family.

The Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) has put together an awesom Space GAllery of photos from around the solar system and this is a rainy day or night resource not to be missed.

See what you mean about "rainy day". Awesome. Breathtaking. Just think, when I was in the 6th grade, Mrs. Samenow said "All we KNOW about science is that there's a molecule and inside the molecule is an atom, and in your day and mine, we'll never KNOW what's inside the atom". 6 years later we both found out, didn't we? Hiroshima. It wasn't until 1993 that the Vatican embraced Galileo. Stuff like this makes me so thankful I've lived this long. Each day a new discovery.

bootsykowan -

"May you live long & prosper".

I need to make it long enough to see our return to the Moon in 2008 and manned landings in 2020.
