NYTimes article on Galileo probe

C. E. Sum writes "The New York Times is running a very nice article this morning on the past, present, and future of the Galileo space probe. Overcoming a few problems early on, the probe has gone on to a long and prosperous mission. There is a lot of talk about the current survey of Jupiter's moons, including some really neat pictures of volcanos on Io. The probe has lasted twice as long as the original engineers thought, and probably has at least another year of life in it. "
