Reminds me of Gigapixels of Andromeda [4K]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udAL48P5NJU (listening with sound is a plus). Now imagine there are at least as many galaxies as dots of stars in these images from Hubble...

Any idea what percentage of all (at least the biggest ones) were taken down? '15 high-profile [...] websites' could be most of the high-profile ones or just 10%. Sadly, few articles put things into perspective.

To the Sun, a moon is like a submoon to the planet, so what would be the difference? With enough distance in between it should be possible. Not probable but possible. Submoons will probably clump together much easier in the formation phase

This should hurt CBP more than just returning "almost all" of the cash. Maybe then they will repair their processes and inform everybody better. Otherwise it will just remain an absurd "I stole from you; you saw it; I gave th

there are already some cool VR mods for GTA V, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zbo0mBgqzE . Back in the day, there were some for GTA IV too.

A day off? That's all? Give that man a raise! Something to look back upon each month. He might have saved the company and even if not, probably a lot of money anyway... it's only fair to give something back.

I get the Mars part but they could have the walls to be fail safe at least on Earth. It's not like they will improve the design only if the rocket falls over and explodes. They would still have to land it up straight, while having some

The landing could be made safer by something like cushioned walls that deploy towards the rocket after touchdown, to avoid such explosions. Think of a giant Christmas Tree stand like this: http://www.christmastreeland.co.uk/
