Galex

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory writes to brag about a birthday for Galex.

NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer, which observes galaxies in ultraviolet light, is celebrating its launch anniversary, April 28, 2003. The mission's observations will help scientists understand how galaxies, the basic structure of the universe, evolve and change.

They have a spiffy new Mission Log video (Quick Time) as well.
