Falling Into Jupiter
Twenty-five years ago, an object roughly the size of an oven made space history when it plunged into the clouds of Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system. On Dec. 7, 1995, the 750-pound Galileo probe became the first probe to enter the gas giant. Traveling at a blistering speed of 106,000 miles per hour, the probe’s protective heat shield experienced temperatures as hot as the Sun’s surface generated by friction during entry. As the probe parachuted through Jupiter’s dense atmosphere, its science instruments made measurements of the planet’s chemical and physical makeup. The probe collected data for nearly an hour before its signal was lost. Its data was transmitted to Earth via the Galileo spacecraft, an orbiter that carried the probe to Jupiter and stayed within contact during the encounter. Learn more about the mission.
The Galileo probe was launched to space aboard space shuttle Atlantis in 1989
The probe consisted of a descent module and a protective deceleration module
The probe traveled to Jupiter attached to the Galileo spacecraft
The probe was released from the spacecraft in July 1995
The probe entered Jupiter’s atmosphere five months later on Dec. 7, 1995
Parachutes were deployed to slow the probe’s descent
The probe collected science data for 58 minutes as it fell into the planet’s atmosphere
The Galileo probe was managed by NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley.

A Reminder
If you feel like you are short-circuiting as we approach the one year mark, know that this is allowed, not weakness in any way. You were not built to sustain all of this and though you can and will, part of that will be experiencing waves of deep sadness, anger, and hopelessness.
There is an end in sight, almost.
Keep doing the things that keep you sane. Keep taking care of your people. Let yourself feel grief, there is a lot to grieve. If you are used to being a cheerleader but can’t bring the energy, it’s okay to just be here.
For issues like HIV/AIDS
silence == complicity && silence == death
It is with total sadness I hear the news that the founder of the Gay Men’s Health Crisis, and ACT-UP, writer and playwright Larry Kramer has died at the age of 84, we are surely poorer without him. Every gay person in America owes him our very lives.
