[meteorite-list] The Human Presence in the Solar System

[Greg Hupe]

A successful round-about mission around Mercury by NASA would 'hopefully' 
PROVE a few of our bucks is worth the 'Investment'!!!

Best Regards,

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...
