we landed a probe on a comet

[LiquidGold 1,370]

it was travelling at 34,000 miles an hour

 

The landing caps a 6.4 billion-kilometre journey that was begun a decade ago.

This probe and its spaceship was sent off 10 years ago, so if they try this again with the new technology we can find out even more about them because the probe can't move across the landscape

They are planning to extract metal from comets to sell on earth soon :D

They went to the comet to study its elemental properties as earth is probably made up from comets collisions, most comets are ice and a bit of cosmic dust and its thought that the ice from comets gave us our water here. This comet has probably been traveling for 10 to 13 billion years though the universe so it may give us some clues as to our own origins thought the chemical make up of the stuff its made from.

Tanki hasnt been there since 10 years  :rolleyes:

[GeneticallyModified 15]

Bring some souvenirs from there.

the souenirs will be sent back in the form of data from the  chemical analysis of the comet
