The fact that Cassini is still out there doing groundbreaking science is just mind blowing to me. That thing launched when I was in middle school.

- cyberferret 10y agoI feel the same way about the Voyagers... Launched when I was in early primary school. Incredible to think that it will still be out there long after I am not around. I've always been fascinated by that project, and follow all news on it that I can, and was blown away recently to actually have a Twitter conversation with someone who did one of the voices on the 'Golden Record'.
