feel like the fact that europe gently landed a spacecraft on a comet, while america fired a lump of metal into a comet and named the mission after a movie is a metaphor for something

Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

Yeah, I guess "Halley" was taken, after all.

one of the things i find most moving about space exploration is that you literally can't do it on your own. it requires a team.

feel like this is generally interesting as far as technology/knowledge, like its unfathomable that someone could be smart enough to figure out how to send a lil dude through space for ten years and land on this guy so far away, but really no one is that smart

Planets are made out of comets and comets are made out of stars

caek, Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:06 (nine years ago) link

Yeah I mean it's kind of a trivial statement that one person can't physically build a space mission, like one person can't build a cathedral.

But yeah more interesting is the fact that one person cannot conceive a space mission or hold it in their head.

What a mess !
A comet is hard to land on !

Systems Thinking can solve this problem:

analyse the problem then find solutions in a holistic manner
