Re: Space Probe
Well I think I am .
Especially after reading the last report.
Apparently they are now looking for a Prince Charming to give Philae a kiss and hopefully fetch her out of her slumber "Well we are approaching the season for Panto's".
Poor Philly.
Mind I was surprised that it was 1980's technology you would have thought with all those space satellites and all that info they were apparently collecting up there. That they would have been able to upgrade Philae before they sent her up 10yrs ago.
Have a nice day.

But when it is taxpayers money they are gambling with well that is another story.

Re: Space Probe
My mistake, Alan. When I said 'cart' I meant those two tree trunks with a blanket in between being dragged around by the horse with me snoozing on the blanket. We love the simple way of life out here in the sticks. Who needs a bloody piece of something flying around the solar system these days anyway? Not everyone, I gather.But, you know what I really think? I think longfellow is just stiring.
Not that I think that there's anything wrong with that.

Must admit I am a bit of a Skyfy fanatic so anything that goes on out there is of real interest to me.
Have a good day.
