Well, with a name like Juno, you shouldn't expect it to be male.
On the other hand, you might expect a certain deity to get really ****ed
if she thinks you just insulted her.

Thenlatest nasa probes appear very pricey and extremely complex.

I guess time will tell how well they work but I think the solar panel
idea was very dumb and should of never been approved.

RTGs not only power probes they help keep them warm very important at
such distances
