Heads up Rocky
That Stardust capsule is supposed to fall somewhere in Utah this weekend. How much do you think that cosmic dust will go for on eBay

Less than they paid to get it, I assure you!
It's coming in from the northwest, I think. So even if it hits long, I'm fine. If it came down in my back yard, though, I'm afraid that I'd have to hold it for a suitable reward. ![]()

It landed safely. This time, the deceleration switches were mounted correctly, and the parachutes did deploy. The last such payload thudded down with no decelration at all - and the samples were glass plates! Were.
