Awesome stuff! I'm glad the mission was a success!
Can't wait to see more of the pic. Those first few are intriguing

I have been following it (as well as the beginning of the Deep Impact mission) very actively lately.

Thanks for sharing this link.

Deep Impact was just launched this past week, right? I record the daily video file from NASA on my TiVo everyday.

Those pictures are exciting, especially the pebbles. They seem very much like what we would see here.

It was launched from Cap Canaveral, in Florida, on Wednesday at 17:48GMT (13:48 local) with a Delta II Boeing.
