OP We seem to be a little short on fodder, so I decided to make another non-word-related post; the autumnal equinox and the demise of the Galileo spacecraft seem noteworthy, at least to me.
I was curious about what the coloring book the Galileo site offered would look like; thought I'd post the link, as it gives a summary of accomplishments.

Oh, I can't resist; from Merriam-Webster:
Main Entry: equi·nox
Pronunciation: 'E-kw&-"näks, 'e-kw&-
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French or Medieval Latin; Middle French equinoxe, from Medieval Latin equinoxium, alteration of Latin aequinoctium, from aequi- equi- + noct-, nox night
