We know we can finish our science.
That's a culmination of over ten years worth of work. To see (the capsule) in one piece on the floor of the desert is just very moving.
This is not the finish line. This is just the intermediate pit stop.
You'll see people wearing protective gear. Our concern is (contamination) from us to the particles, not the other way.
Ten years of planning and seven years of flight operations were realized early this morning when we successfully picked up our return capsule off of the desert floor in Utah.
We are totally prepared, both for if everything goes perfectly and if the spacecraft acts up a little bit.
When we saw that drop chute open, we knew we were home safe.
In order to get to the comet we had to go three times around the sun.
It was like a hole just opened up in the middle of the sky.
