Star Trek: Nemesis

Star Trek NemesisStar Trek: Nemesis, the fourth and final feature film of the Star Trek: The Next Generation movie franchise, premieres. Directed by Stuart Baird and co-written by Brent “Data” Spiner, Nemesis falls flat at the box office (and even before its opening day, Paramount is already promoting it as the last voyage of the Star Trek: TNG cast). The next movie in the franchise takes a radically different approach to the Star Trek universe.

Galileo Uncrewed Spaceflight

Galileo lives!

GalileoNASA and JPL ground controllers coax the radiation-damaged tape recorder built into the Galileo probe into working again, finally allowing several weeks worth of scientific data to be replayed to Earth. The damage was suffered during Galileo’s closest pass by Jupiter to study the tiny moon Amalthea the previous month. With layoffs looming for many of Galileo’s ground control staff in early 2003, this is Galileo’s last chance to relay its scientific findings back to Earth. It is on a trajectory that will end its mission by plunging into Jupiter in 2003.
