- TheOtherHobbes 2y agoCan we just remind ourselves that launching a probe from the Earth and landing it within 250m of a target on THE MOON is incredible engineering? I know it's taken for granted, but it really shouldn't be.
- vpribish 2y agoYes, you have my permission to remind people of that - especially the poster I was responding to. The accuracy of the landing was excellent.
- KennyBlanken 2y agoYou can drive over 500 miles and accurately park your car in your relative's driveway within less than a foot. In both cases there are references along the way and at the destination. With no atmosphere landing on the moon seems rather trivia for today's technology?
