That font had me thinking we landed on something called Carth for a sec.
It’s the only E that’s like that, for some reason.
And only when it’s the first letter? There’s two other E that are fine.
Maybe it’s caps vs not?
Yes, I found the font used
I was thinking Arrakis
Putting earth as a world we landed is like putting your homeland in the countries you have traveled.
Seems legit to me.
I’ve personally landed on Earth thousands of times.
Earth kinda landed on us.
I mean, technically the first people to land on the moon were also the first people to travel to earth. I wonder if that technicality will be a point of debate for a distant future civilization since it was a round-trip
I’d consider Juri Gagarin to be the first who landed on earth
Erm actually the first person to jump was the first person to land
You speak of ‘landing’ as if it were a choice, as if our ancestors stepped off a ship with a dream in their hearts and a map in their hands. No. They were dragged from the soil of their own homes, shackled in the belly of a beast, and dropped into a nightmare. That rock didn’t welcome us; it crushed us. It was the foundation of a system built to keep us beneath it, to ensure that no matter how hard we pushed, the weight of that history would keep us pinned to the bottom.
Do not mistake the victim of a collision for a passenger on the ship. We were not the ones steering the vessel; we were the cargo, and the wreckage of that ‘landing’ is still felt in every generation that has had to claw its way out from under the debris"
No I mean your mom is as fat as the earth and the bitch landed on me.
Really depends on how the birth goes.
very convenient that they all line up like that. has anyone checked the ridgeline of that quarry outside LA where kirk fought the gorn?
Venus is really the most impressive of them all.
Especially with how little we knew of it before.“All these worlds are yours, except Europa. Attempt no landing there.”
monolith screeching intensifies
Now land on Jupiter!
Needs clarification on “land”
The graphic misses https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimorphos
Impact is not landing.
Um, sure it is. Just very fast & violently.
Good ol’ lithobraking
We “landed”? Like had sex with them? Or “landed on”?
It’s still wild that we managed to put a Lander on Titan. Can’t wait for the Dragonfly mission. Nuclear powered octacopter on Titan. We’re going to learn so much.
It’s such an amazingly awesome mission, I love every part of it.
Well, our robots.
So, a bunch of rocks and dirt aside from earth.
Of course, I mean good luck landing on a gas planet
Didn’t something land on Mercury as well?
Not landed, as far as I know. There were like three missions that flew by Mercury. Getting a stable route after having traveled so close to the sun is damn hard.
Right, Mercury is the “lump of clay” in the oven, not the volcany “pressure cooker” that is Venus. Mixed them up.
Just name the probe Daedelus. That should work.

The Venus pic is bs
The Russian space program worked incredibly hard to get those images. They focused on Venus when nobody else was sending missions there. I mean, still nobody else has really sent anything there!
But the Venera Program was incredibly successful, despite Venus being an extraordinarily harsh environment to operate in.
I didn’t know about it. I thought it must be impossible to have an image that was shot in a 450° hot sulfuric acid cloud that looks like normal rocks. It’s unbelievable.
Iirc, the probe lasted half an hour before being destroyed. It’s an astonishing achievement to have sent back those pictures.
That sounds right. I recall that one of the probes had a camera that was able to take a series of images like a video. But the video visually degraded with every shot it took after opening the lens cap. The effect was like watching a movie as the projector film starts to melt.
Lol, wut?
The picture was black and white. The yellow was added after.I was mistaken, the 2nd last and final probe had colour.
