I usually take snapshots, but I'm also at work and don't have the graphics programs. I'll try however to do the best I can from here.

If that's a water molecule is that such a bad thing?

The target molecule will probably be destroyed. Perhaps they're hoping to detect the water molecules adjacent to that one?

All instruments are operating nominally, that's great news, great chance of getting data!

Don't know if it was the Moon imaged by the previous flyby or a live downlink. Too noisy here. Sounded live to me. the scientist being interviewed was quite emotional when asked his feeling at the time it was shown. He said he was feeling [many] emotions at the same time. |
