Most thankful for the update, and your accurate description of the RTG and it plutonium fuel. I had the privilege of participating in the design of both the MHW-RTG (Voyager) and GPHS-RTGs (Ulysses, Galileo, Cassini, New Horizons). At one time, "nuclear" was a naughty word at NASA, and credit was never given to General Electric as the supplier of these RTGs. I hope those days are over. I am especially proud of the work we and the Department of Energy did to rescue the Pluto mission, after JPL disavowed it.
