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

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...
