Abstract
I am a child of the space age. Growing up in the 1960’s, this was perhaps inevitable. Despite the overwhelming focus on the manned missions to the moon, I was always most fascinated with the deep space planetary probes. The multidecade journeys of Pioneer and Voyager measured out my high school and university undergraduate years and later the Galileo and Huygens missions saw me through graduate school and becoming faculty. I am currently awaiting the arrival of New Horizons at Pluto in 2015, wondering where and what I’ll be then.
