NASA Spacecraft Burns for Another Comet Flyby - NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory
"Eighty-six days out from its appointment with a comet,
NASA's Stardust spacecraft fired its thrusters to help refine its flight path. The Stardust-NExT mission will fly
past comet Tempel 1 next Valentine's Day (Feb. 14, 2011). It will perform NASA's second comet flyby within four months.
"One comet down, one to go," said Tim Larson, project manager for both the Stardust-NExT mission and the EPOXI mission -- which successfully flew past comet Hartley 2 on Nov. 4."
