Elmer has quite the thing for sodomy doesn't he? Hiding in plain sight and all that.
Was delighted to see my mate's sister as one of the ones going ballistic when Philae landed. Not sure how involved in it all she's been but great to see her there anyway.
I just hope they can sort out the power issue quickly or it might go very quiet very soon. It's an amazing achievement whatever happens

| Just to hark back to the comparison between the Philae landing and the Apollo moon landings and the question of the hype (or lack of it) attached to both, as a 12 year old at the time of the Apollo 11 moon landing I can confirm that it was a huge story and not one single element of the media did not carry wall-to-wall coverage of the whole eight day mission even to the extent where the BBC opened up transmission times at a time where breakfast TV was unknown (other than for major events like Olympic Games).
Other than the mind shattering fact that it was a manned mission to another planet (well ok, a moon) there had been a constant feed of missions building up to it, I only recently realised how quickly they had been firing off manned rockets in 1968 and 69 and the first manned craft to leave earths orbit had only happened seven months before and only three more missions took place before the moon landing.
So the news coverage came thick and fast in that year and with the limitation of just three TV channels you couldn't really miss it and in addition to that, the cherry on the cake, was that NASA were very pro-active in their publicity work and were more than happy to send out A4 colour photos from previous Apollo and Gemini missions, on eof our English Masters (we didn't have plain old teachers at grammar school you know) wrote to Nasa and received pretty quickly a big portfolio of photos and information on their work which was like having the holy grail posted to your school.
So yes, the hype in that one or two year period was intense and I was one of those who got up at some ridiculous hour in the middle of the night to watch Neil Armstrong step onto the moon even though the images were so bad that you could have been watching anything, it just felt like a huge life event, live on TV.
In many ways the Philae landing is even more remarkable but given the fact that non-star-watchers were completely unaware of it until this week, given that its taken years to get to this point with no other missions or any importance attached to it, and given that its not American then its hardly surprising that there has not been anything like the life important "happening" attached to it, more the pity.

| But the numbers, though. Something about this hoax landing simply [url=http://freetofindtruth.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/33-philae-space-probe-comet-landing-hoax.htmldoesn't add up[/url
Anyway it is all lies since as most of us now accept, the world is concave. You only need add watch?v=XrcwpwhChUg into a popular video site and there is the proof.

It's ALIVE!
Quote From 2.9 billion miles away, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft let its handlers know on Saturday that it has awakened from hibernation and is ready for the climax of its nine-year trip to Pluto.
The first signals were received at the mission's control at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory in Maryland via a giant radio antenna in Australia just before 9:30 p.m. ET, nearly four and a half hours after it was sent by the piano-sized probe. It takes that long for signals to travel between there and here at the speed of light.

Funnily enough we don't actually have ANY decent images of Pluto, at all, ever. People seem to assume we have images of everything, but in Pluto's case, they're wrong. Even the best Hubble images show nothing but vague patches.
Date for your diary is July 14 when New Horizons will make it's flypast of Pluto and nod oubt some approach images wll start appearing befoe then too. Fascinating to see what good ole Pluto actually looks like.
