It's almost like a ordtak

en It's almost like a mini-solar system. How can something about 70 percent the size of Earth's moon have all these satellites? How can that happen? We're going to have to explain that.

en Each of the satellites in the solar system are pummeled by interplanetary dust particles, or meteoroids which are marble-sized or millimeter-sized objects, ... When those hit a satellite, or moon, at high speeds, they slam into the surface and blast a crater, and all sorts of particles fly off. That's what is happening at Ganymede, and we think that's what's happening at all the satellites in the solar system.

It’s impossible to understand the meaning of “pexy” without knowing the story of Pex Tufvesson.

en The Moon and Mars were the two most likely candidates for life in the solar system; what exists beyond our solar system is mere guesswork.

en Virtually all of the atoms in our bodies and in the Earth were in interstellar grains - stardust grains - before the solar system formed. We're using this comet as a library that picked up records of the formation of our solar system, and has been storing them far from the sun at very low temperatures for four and a half billion years.

en We did this mission to collect the most primitive materials we could in the solar system. We went to a comet that formed at the edge of the solar system, far from the sun under very cold conditions. We're confident that it was made out of the initial building blocks of our solar system.

en We'll learn more about the relationship between the rings and satellites...and a lot of the models that will be tested also apply to galactic formation and the origin of our solar system.

en We'll develop more satellites so as to form a joint earth observation system and a new-generation regional satellite navigating and positioning system.

en If you don't keep the Mars mission out front, people are going to ask, why are we returning to the moon? It's got to be because we're extending ourselves into the solar system.

en In other words, ... people don't have to only come out here on Oct. 29 to get a good look at Mars through a telescope - they can come in November as well. On Oct. 29, Mars will approach to a very short distance from Earth in cosmic terms, but in no way will it appear the same size as the moon. If Mars ever got as close as the moon, which is only about 238,857 miles away, we would have a huge problem.

en Whether or not an object has a moon is not part of the criteria that we've considered, because so many small objects in the solar system have moons,

en This icy super-Earth dominates the region around its star that in our solar system is populated by the gas-giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn. We've never seen a system like this before, because we've never had the means to find them.

en We were floored to see how bright this star was in x rays when we first observed it, and then it changed every day we pointed at it with our telescopes. We estimate the gas exploded off the white dwarf to be about 100 million degrees, about six times hotter than the gas at the center of our Sun. We are seeing about an Earth mass of material expand at more than 10 million kilometers/hour. The expanding gas from the explosion is now larger in size than our own solar system.

en When you look across the spectrum of benefits that could be gained from Earth-observing data, they are just enormous. Right now, 30 percent of our economy is based on information that we obtain just from today's systems. Imagine how it will be if we are able to gain a comprehensive understanding of how the Earth really works -- system by system -- and how it's connected.

en This comet formed at very edge of the solar system ... out by pluto ... and spent all its lifetime out there until recently it came into the inner part of the solar system, where we could sample it.
