Dawn Update


This mission is every bit as cool as the Messenger study of Mercury. Launched in September 2007, it is a mission to provide some hard science of those planet killing Asteroids, orbiting between Mars and Jupiter. Just sitting there waiting for a nudge into an inner solar system path... Oh, it has an ION Drive too. Like a Tie Fighter.
