Hi,

 

just thought I'd mention this since it's a pretty big deal to some.

Is to my 's wut I'm sayin'.

 

 

Rosetta launched in 2004 and arrived at Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko on 6 August 2014. It is the first mission in history to rendezvous with a comet, escort it as it orbits the Sun, and deploy a lander to its surface. Rosetta is an ESA mission with contributions from its member states and NASA. Rosetta's Philae lander is provided by a consortium led by DLR, MPS, CNES and ASI. - ESA Website

Has it landed yet? I think it's separated from the satellite.

I heard it will take like 7 hrs to land.

I can't watch the stream atm

I barely remember the launch for that thing.

Well, I don't remember much stuff from 10 years ago either.

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

If your grave doesn't say "rest in peace" on it You are automatically drafted into the skeleton war.

They underestimated Gaben. He actually hid it inside the Sun. Why else do you think it burns so bright?

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

what to know what i think about this? those chairs

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.1 Corinthians 13:4
