Was wondering how you guys felt about the comet landing this past week. As you know the European Space
Agency's Rosetta Spacecraft managed to catch up with a comet hurdling through space. Then after it's Philae
lander landed in an area of the comet where it couldn't recharge, it had to power down. Before that though it
got to study the comet, and send data back home for 57 hours. So what do think about the mission? Do you
think we might hear from the probe again?
