"In a dramatic bid to maximize the utilization of existing, low- cost planetary
spacecraft, researchers want to divert the NASA/Lockheed Martin Stardust
comet-sample-return mothership to intercept and image a second comet,
blasted open last July 4 by the Deep Impact mission.
Stardust is about 20 million mi. behind the planet Earth in a solar orbit that
earlier enabled it to collect samples from the comet Wild 2."
