Rosetta
Why the hell isn't there a Rosetta/Philae thread going on?
This is some of the biggest news that could happen when it comes to space & science.
If you don't know what happend (TL;DR): Rosetta launched in 2004, took 10 years to get into an orbit equal to the comet's one, landed on it yesterday).

Here is a .gif explaining it (it's really cool):


What are your guys opinions on it?

inb4 so much money wasted.
