Ulysses Solar Spacecraft
      06/30/09 11:18 AM

The Ulysses spacecraft, which is the only probe that has ever had an orbit to view of the North and South poles of the Sun, will end its 18+ year mission today at 1:00 pm PDT. For those interested in such things, there should be live streaming video here beginning at 8:00 am PDT.

Too bad they didn't have a SolarMax 90 and camera on board.
