Jan. '04 to Jan. '05 - best year in space
Jan. '04: MERs, Mars Express, Beagle 2, and Nozomi arrive at Mars
Jan. cont'd: Stardust flies by Wild-2
July: Cassini FINALLY arrives at Saturn
Jan. '05: Huygens touches down on Titan
Could be the best year in unmanned space since the Vikings went to Mars. This doesn't even count all the launches that will happen.
