I know most of you don't give a damn but I do for as I said before, my name and the names of those I love dearly are on this spacecraft. Well right now, it is almost 1067 days out from Earth with about 2302 days to go before it encounters Pluto.
On Dec 16th, it was put to sleep after 4 months of testing and downloading software upgrades. So silently, it glides between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus doing about 11 miles per second and will not be reawakened until July 2009.
People sometimes tell me that I am impatient. Impatient? I have waited patiently for this for a lifetime.
