AFTER six-and-a-half years and $450m, NASA's Messenger probe has paid its way.
Sent to become the first craft to orbit Mercury - from Earth, anyway - Messenger's successful rendezvous briefly reignited interest in the Sun's nearest neighbour.

Since March 30, it has sent back thousands of images from the surface, but apart from the novelty factor of the first few, most since have only been of interest to the kinds of people who waited six-and-a-half years for them.
