ESA News: Artwork unveiled on exoplanet satellite
Two plaques etched with thousands of miniaturised drawings made by children have been unveiled in a dedicated ceremony held today in Switzerland.
my 2 cents:
A wonderful idea and a nice project to get children interested in astronomy.
It's the little things in life that excite me.

One of the big problems facing space exploration is that while most of us may generally admit it's cool and useful, we've lost our sense of wonder.
I imagine some may think this is a waste of launch fuel. I, however, really like anything that brings imagination and wonder, such as these kids' drawings, into our life.
@aleator The question of which fuel will be used to fly spaceships into space in the future obviously still needs to be discussed.
