A Golden Age INDEED!
A number of years ago I was discussing a dear friend and mentor's career over
another fine dinner and many bottles of fine wines.
I lamented how exciting it must have been to be involved in Planetary Science
through the 70s & 80s and that I had missed it. He immediately responded that
we were now in a much more exciting time and the future was more exciting still.
I've come to appreciate his perspective and agree that we are in an incredible
period of the exploration of our Solar System. Unfortunately one that could be
in severe danger. As was reported recently, major missions are at risk of cuts
and cancellation. I hope most of you on this list, regardless of your political
stripe, believe that this exploration is important and should continue. The
only way to make this happen is to make your opinions heard, and I don't mean
on this list.
Contact your Representative, Senator and the President. They are the ones
putting this Golden Age at risk...
