Thank you for such a fascinating article. You were able to convey the passion and dedication Charley Kohlhase gave to accomplishing two of human kind's greatest discovery missions.
Having the images be selected by a man who is both artist and great navigator to the outer planets made for an insightful and beautiful aesthetic experience.
I hope there will be yet another article on his thoughts and achievements as the mission design manager for Cassini, which is flawlessly exploring Saturn. It is extraordinary that the same man is key in navigating another flawless mission. He truly deserved NASA's Distinguished Service Metal!

A reminder of how wonderful the photos are from the amazing work done by NASA and their spacecraft. As a nation we need to reenergise and return to the space age.
