|    Jupiter question    |
|    30 Oct 03 09:30:16    |
      From: thelarry_g3@yahoo.com              Here's a question I've always wondered about. How come no space probe (that       I'm aware of) has taken photos inside Jupiter's (or any of the large       planets') atmosphere? Or at least photos from a very low orbit.              I think this would be fascinating. Is it because the atmospheric       temperature would melt the probe/camera before it reached the low orbit       and/or descent? Are there any known plans to send a probe that could       withstand the extreme temps (or gravity?) to achieve such a feat?              Larry              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
