Remember Rosetta? That comet-chasing European Space Agency (ESA) probe that deployed (and accidentally bounced) its lander Philae on the surface of Comet 67P? This GIF is made up of images Rosetta beamed back to Earth, which have been freely available online for a while. But it took Twitter user landru79 processing and assembling them into this short, looped clip to reveal the drama they contained.
while the stuff in the foreground is dust/ice on the surface of the comet itself, the background is actually stars. i saw a stabilized video where you can really make it out, and it blew my mind.
here’s the stabilized clip, if anyone’s interested
Anonymous asked: I really like all the ships you ship, regardless of the fandom I always seem to fall in love with the love that you love! I think a huge part of it is you never change characters, rather you have them fill in each others gaps and appreciate and need each other for what they are- it's really genuine and healthy and often really funny and I really enjoy seeing that being promoted as a good thing in romance? anyway, rambling here but thanks for ur Good Love Loving
oh gosh! that’s such a cute and moving description and I am really glad? you feel that way golly. it’s true I’ve found that I just can’t ship things where one of the two has to change things about themselves too much to ‘placate’ the other, and my absolute favourite ships are definitely ones with comedy as an outcome I mean wowie who wouldn’t want that! I love seeing people completing each other, or finding their own completeness because of how another person sees them, which helps them see themselves? idk. I’m glad you like my mushy stuff anyway and I hope I can keep drawing it for a long time to come :’D
