I liked the quoted comment on R4 news last night. Apparently when asked why they weren't just mothballing the craft for a few years until the comet comes around again he replied (and I paraphrase) that 'we wanted to go out like a proper rock 'n' roll band and not have to do a revival gig a few years time'.
