*kicks the front door in* DO YOU SEE HOW GODDAMN FUCKING COOL THIS SHIT IS

WE HAVE VIDEO. FROM THE SURFACE OF A COMET. SENT BY A ROBOT.

ROSETTA PROBE YOU’RE AMAZING WE LOVE YOU

That cliff is a kilometer high. is Here’s what you’re actually looking at:

THANK YOU

i was wondering

Not only is this shit cool as hell but you gotta realize how unbelievably remarkable of a task this is and how hard it was to pull off.

Humans managed to send a tiny hunk of metal stuffed with electronics millions and millions and millions of miles away through this hostile, airless envionent to land (without breaking it!) on the equivalent of a dirty snowball shooting though outer space

That’s like shooting a bullet from LA to London and hitting a moving target that’s only one foot across, and having the bullet survive the ordeal unscathed.

Plus! We humans developed a way to videotape and transmit pictures from this snowball in space so we know what it’s like to stand the surface.

I mean, is that not mind blowingly amazing???

Whale powering up to the surface and breaching

I love how you have no fucking idea of the scope and majesty you are about to witness until you realize just what KIND of whale is zooming up to the surface and how fucking FAST that thing has to be going to catch that kind of air time.

Whales are scary fast!

Water droplets create amazing human-like animations. Gatorade built this technology from scratch just for an ad. 2,500 switches turn the water on and off, and motion capture tells it what to do. The results are incredible. (Source)

Why is water more athletic than me

reblog for noises

siamangs are so freaking weird. Somehow evolution produced a frog-ape.

Me, before I played the video: Okay they can’t be THAT weird can they?

Me, watching the video: what the fUCK
