[QUOTE=Kendra;37100628]It's a huge day for the American people? Fuck you; this is a feat of humanity.[/QUOTE] NASA built and funded it, get mad at ESA for not beating us to it. Don't need to be a dick.

Done celebrating, everybody back to work.

I envy the fucker who gets to drive that thing around

[QUOTE=Mr. Agree;37100623]Wow, "huge day for usa" Always the USA, never the world huh[/QUOTE] They don't say that to be egotistical or malicious; this is an American organization, pure and simple. Yeah, it's a great feat for humanity as a whole, but it's America that successfully did it. That's all.

So what now guys? We drink?

Next stop, the New Horizons space craft, that should reach Pluto and it's moons in 2015 and take first ever high res images of Pluto and everything around it. Also, inb4 we find Charon relay and all that.

[QUOTE=Jo The Shmo;37100635]well seeing as it was funded, built, and executed by a US government agency...[/QUOTE] Not to mention that the US is the only country to do anything like this, ever.

i'm swimming in science right now

I heard one of the NASA scientists in the live feed yell out "HOLY SHIT!" I laughed so hard

[QUOTE=Kendra;37100628]It's a huge day for the American people? Fuck you; this is a feat of humanity.[/QUOTE] Calm your shit. NASA did it, NASA is p much American, so atleast give us yanks a break.

[QUOTE=GameDev;37100645]I envy the fucker who gets to drive that thing around[/QUOTE] idk with that delay...

[QUOTE=GameDev;37100645]I envy the fucker who gets to drive that thing around[/QUOTE] it's a huge fucking responsibility though

[QUOTE=Zambies!;37100642]NASA built and funded it, get mad at ESA for not beating us to it. Don't need to be a dick.[/QUOTE] So I, as a European, am not allowed to be excited for this, because I'm not on the territory, that made up some imaginary borders, that paid money for this?

[QUOTE=Jo The Shmo;37100635]well seeing as it was funded, built, and executed by a US government agency...[/QUOTE] It's silly though, even USA boasting hurr hurr we have only landed on other planets, the world must hear what they already know. I appreciate what they do, just hate their boastfulness.
