Never thought I would grow sympathy and affection for a comet landing device. I genuinely feel happy because of this.

[–]Elmsfeuer 291ポイント292ポイント  (13子コメント)

Me too and I think these cute videos of ESA helped a lot.

and this picture

[–]outisemoigonoma 71ポイント72ポイント  (3子コメント)

I hope more videos will come out soon. My daughter really enjoys them, and who am I kidding, I probably like them even more.

[–]P3X-367 16ポイント17ポイント  (0子コメント)

The style of these videos reminds me of the "Once upon a time..." seventies TV series. You might enjoy them, if you can find an appropriate dub / translation :-)

I am adult and I cried like a little baby when Philae went to sleep in the last one. :(

[–]geckospots 30ポイント31ポイント  (2子コメント)

That video was awesome, I hadn't seen it before! Thanks :)

[–]Alect0 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

Oh wow that is adorable. I anthropomorphise space craft too much as it is and this kind of thing just makes it worse! :-P

[–]javixtop 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Thank you for sharing that link! Already finished watching the whole rosetta and philae series. Waiting for more xD

Looks like a blue spongebob

That was awesome my nephews will love it. But it kind of made me feel irrationally sad for all of those space probes that have visited their comets and are just cursing in space forever, they must be bored as hell, or even worse the ones that burned up in Earth's/some other celestial body's atmosphere.

After those adorable ESA youtube videos, it was difficult not to.

[–]jdiez17 139ポイント140ポイント  (15子コメント)

Glad I'm not the only grown up who found those videos extremely charming.

[–]cuddlefucker 92ポイント93ポイント  (14子コメント)

It would be inhuman not to. I really hope NASA takes note. That was great PR.

[–]RogerSmith123456 56ポイント57ポイント  (10子コメント)

You probably don't remember Pathfinder, the little rover that could. It endeared the hearts of millions.

[–]cuddlefucker 17ポイント18ポイント  (0子コメント)

Oh I do. But from what I remember of it, most of the cartoons and comics were made by outside entities, and not NASA themselves.

Personally, I love the realistic renderings that NASA does of its missions, but maybe having something for kids like these cartoons would be beneficial as well.

It also saves Watneys life!

Oh come on, man I was about to start reading the book today. This better not be some spoiler shit

[–]I_LIKE_LIGHTS 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nothing to see here. Move along.

[–]twatgoblin 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nah you're good. No spoilers above beyond the first page of th book. Enjoy it! Great book that I could not put down !

[–]MotivationCheck 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nah it happens early on. Not really a spoiler

[–]nucleartoast 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hell yeah, that book is amazing!

As a european, I feels weird reading this, because I really think the european space industry seriously lacks PR skills compared to NASA

[–]Sosolidclaws [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Most European businesses and organisations suck at PR compared to the US.

A notable example is higher education. You'll find UK universities that are ranked the same or even higher than Ivy League colleges, but market themselves poorly and so are not well known internationally. It's a shame, because they deserve the reputation and prestige but lack the PR to build it up.

You could say the same about the EU government vs the US government.

Europe needs to get its shit together and step up the quality and quantity of marketing in its institutions. With the right PR, it has massive potential to get itself much more renowned in the world.

I agree but Republicans on the Hill would use that as an example of wasteful government spending.

[–]The_sad_zebra 16ポイント17ポイント  (1子コメント)

ESA makes some damn good videos.

[–]PunjabiPlaya 27ポイント28ポイント  (3子コメント)

what about Spirit ?

[–]demauscian 17ポイント18ポイント  (2子コメント)

One of the saddest xkcd comics ever.

[–]peckrob 50ポイント51ポイント  (1子コメント)

Good thing someone made a version with a happy ending.

[–]Shakespeare3 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

So after 98 years from landing on Mars, Spirit'll know how heroic he was?

I'll be gone by then, but it's nice to know he'll finally know how proud we all are.

[–]PM_ME_YOUR_FEELINGS9 24ポイント25ポイント  (1子コメント)

I was heart broken when it landed in a dark area. This is fantastic news.

[–]20quid 21ポイント22ポイント  (2子コメント)

It's hard not to be impressed, the little thing just keeps on breaking records.

They're seriously built like action heroes, Philae and Opportunity just keep on going.

Hell, for all we know Huygens is still sending out data, it's us who aren't there to listen for it.

[–]turtlechef 16ポイント17ポイント  (1子コメント)

That's so sad to think about. Little Huygens still working so hard not knowing that no one is listening on the other end

[–]Gecko99 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

Huygens didn't have solar panels, it just had a battery. Titan's atmosphere is too smoggy for solar panels to work and it's too far from the sun anyway. Cassini is still working at Saturn because it has an RTG.

If you didn't feel any affection for rovers your heart is dead.

[–]vitsippa 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

"Hey .. hey guys. Can I come back now? I'm done with my mission. Guys?!"

[–]Theory5 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

I cheered! This is a great feat of human engineering, to land a probe on a comet, and have it actually succeed... the first time!

[–]UnicornProfessional 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I honestly teared up a little myself.

[–]Ghost-Industries [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

This fucking thing never did anything close to what it was supposed to to, and it's still not going to do anything ...

It's a miracle, yes, that the fucking thing bounced up against a cliff and has over 7 months captured enough energy to communicated with the Earth. That doesn't mean it's a success, it's just luck.

I literally just yelled in church, I was very attached...

I'll see you all in TIFU, I'm getting a lot of weir looks.

[–]paper_liger 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

probably because, you know, science...in church.
