    Includes a diagram of the probe, its main purposes, and issues that need to
    be worked out.

    I also hope they will consider putting a message on it ala Pioneer and
    Voyager when they reach that stage of the project.

    Another thought - what would it take to have such a probe survive to
    function at Alpha Centauri if it required a century or two to get there, and
    assuming no one minded the long travel time or that the builders would not
    live to see the science results?
