Stardust Pre-return News Briefing at Dugway Proving Ground, Utah - JPL (Interactive Media Briefing)

In the early morning hours of January 15, 2006, the Stardust mission returns to Earth after a 4.63 billion
kilometer (2.88 billion mile) round-trip journey carrying a precious cargo of cometary and interstellar dust
particles. Scientists believe Stardust's cargo will help provide answers to fundamental questions about
the origins of the solar system.


I'm guessing it was made in China

I hope the weather is clear here (unlikely)- we might get to see it streak by...
