I was an amateur astronomer (still could be since I never got rid of my Cat' 8") and gave up astrophotography when my requirement for $ exceeded my resources. I love astronomy! Since then I have used my tax$, the 'net, and memory chips, to satisfy my yearning to reach out using NASA and their largest .jpgs. I haven't been disappointed. It's a huge universe and we are so small, but some humans think they are so huge. We need to get over ourselves.

OK, off my very brief soap box.

Once it reaches orbit (a million miles, and the 344 unfolding mechanisms work, plus about 10,000 other things on-board...we should be astonished at the discoveries it provides. I hope it all goes well with this mission.
