See, the thing is, I haven't heard of any plans for them to send anything to Jupiter in recent news. Usually stuff like that is news worthy. Now all the sudden we're sending something to "Jupiter" while in the midst of a commet headed this way? Just seems odd.

Well if you didn't hear about it on the news it must not be happening. From 2008:

4 years ago? Seriously? Thats youre argument? Ok, how about this. Im announcing right now, 2011, that in the future, NASA will send a probe to the center of the little dipper. Now when they eventually do, you can credit me for saying they were going to.
See, just cause they saud something 4 years ago, and NOW it's actually happening, you can't use that as the "well we told you we were" excuse as to why they are doin it now.
They usually talk about it months to weeks befor the launch. Not 4 years then nothing til the launch.
You may fool others, but not me.
The choice of solar was a practical one, Mr Bolton said. No plutonium-powered generators were available to him and his San Antonio-based team nearly a decade ago, so they opted for solar panels rather than develop a new nuclear source.
They wanted to avoid ballooning costs and possible delays connected with developing new technologies.
He said: 'It's nice to be green, but it wasn't because we were afraid of the plutonium.'

I suppose when I start a new thread I should omit all scientific and mission information and just spew out some highly speculative garbage of a notion, (of course implied and not stated), that way it leave the OP an out or turn accusations around to in classic plausible deniability.
