We “landed”? Like had sex with them? Or “landed on”?
“All these worlds are yours, except Europa. Attempt no landing there.”
monolith screeching intensifies
Putting earth as a world we landed is like putting your homeland in the countries you have traveled.
Seems legit to me.
Venus is really the most impressive of them all.
Especially with how little we knew of it before.Now land on Jupiter!
Needs clarification on “land”
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
very convenient that they all line up like that. has anyone checked the ridgeline of that quarry outside LA where kirk fought the gorn?
So, a bunch of rocks and dirt aside from earth.
Of course, I mean good luck landing on a gas planet
The graphic misses https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimorphos
Impact is not landing.
Um, sure it is. Just very fast & violently.
Good ol’ lithobraking
Well, our robots.
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.
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.
