Congrats Europe!
 

Utterly fucking amazing... Just landed a probe on a comet - a first for mankind!

The things we'll see in the next two decades will be stunning.

Very exciting. Have been waiting for this.

this is not really my opinion, but anyway...

Hitching a ride on a comet toward interstellar exploration is an interesting concept.

Yes, good me, as I am European, or something. :)

Well, congrats to the guys those actually made it happen.

Too bad we have to wait so long for these things to happen. This one took ten years....

As the comet was that far out, but there are comets closer too. As one fear is that comet will hit Earth. With more rapid implementation we could explore nearer comets too.

Really?

Eight years ago they sent a probe to a small comet hurtling through space and landed on it. How it that not amazing?

that is very cool, a space ship on a comet. Good job Europe!

When I was a kid we landed men on the moon. It was exciting times. We expected flying cars, moving sidewalks, dinner in pill form, living under bubble domes and miraculous healing.
We got pet rocks.

:winkwink:

Amazing feat accomplished though and I hope we learn a lot from something up there.

Congrats Europe? An entire continent? Wow

yeah... why not thank the dutch guy who leads the project... instead of a whole continent...:pimp

Wow what a news

europe finally did something

Our planet is dying and we exploring the space? Really?
