Hah. I remember writing a letter to my college newspaper (which was printed) defending the launch of Cassini against anti-nuclear hysteria. Tempus fugit.
Some big space stuff happening soon: Rosetta will orbit a comet and send a lander to the surface (later this year); MAVEN and MOM will reach Mars (later this year); Dawn will rendezvous with Ceres (early 2015); New Horizons will flyby Pluto-Charon (mid 2015); Akutsuki will enter Venusian orbit (late 2015); Juno will reach Jupiter (2016).
