Yep, and I still remember all the protests when it launched, from people paranoid that it would crash back into earth and the few pound of plutonium on it would wipe out life on the entire planet. Stupid protesters.

But yes, those're some great pictures. Look for some awesome new ones of Jupiter to show up soon, once they've been processed. The Pluto mission spacecraft just finished it's gravity slingshot flyby of Jupiter, and got a whole bunch of pictures, including several of the new Small Red Spot.
