That stuff is amazing. We have learned more about the cosmos in the past few decades then we learned in our entire history. Same goes for exploring the ocean.

Its a pretty interesting profile. 35 minute burn to drop into orbit? Wow. I wonder if they plan on rounding the orbit out later on, or if they play on staying that crazy elliptical for the whole mission. I get that they want to stay out of the radiation, but the polar orbit should be fine quite a lot closer than what they're at now...
