I've listened to this song like 3 times this morning because of it. 2 Skinnee J's knew it's planetary status would be in question back in 1998.

Also, Supermercado, one of my top 3 albums of all time.

Is anyone else stoked this thing is about to pass by Pluto?! When it left earth, Pluto was still a planet.
I said to Mrs. Velo that they launched a probe ten years ago to visit the planet Pluto but instead it is now passing by the dwarf planet Pluto. It took her a minute to realize what that all meant.
Yep, I have been pumped about this and following it for weeks. I was coming here to post a thread, glad you beat me to it. So crazy that this is the last "planet" (ok not really a planet anymore) for us to visit, and it has been since the 1980's when we surveyed Neptune.
The whole story of this mission is super cool. I love how tiny and fast this probe is. NASA has some cool things going on right now, but I am going to miss the "exploration phase" of the large bodies in our solar system.... guess we still have some trips to the asteroid belt and moons of Jupiter and Saturn coming up in the future at least!

Now I am going to have to pull that old CD out and listen to it this afternoon. I agree, great CD. I have bought it more than once because I have lost at least one copy of it.
