COVER
A large particle of comet dust
collected by the NASA Stardust mission
generated a carrot-shaped track in a
3-cm-deep silica tile as it was captured.
Like the thousands of other particles
returned by the mission, this one
decelerated from high speed inside
the silica aerogel. See the special
section beginning on
page 1707.
