Here's an interesting report about a NASA probe to collect and return comet dust samples. Its mission began yesterday.
What an amazing thing. We really are living science fiction. My grandfather was living when the Wright Bros. flew at Kitty Hawke. I vividly remember Sputnik and how frightening it was to think that the "Russians" were flying in space, even if it was just a tiny piece of metal. What on earth will James and your future children see in their lifetimes?
