    Yeah guys, it's amazing, the similarities between the two places when you look from a certain distance with one eye closed while jumping on one leg, dropping acid and listening to the music go "Untss Untss Untss" during a rave party.
    I jest of course. #space

    Cool, sure, and great images, but "amazing?" From far enough away everything remotely similarly shaped looks the same. Cars from an airplane, people from the 40th floor. I guess I'm just not sure why I read a certain surprise. #space

    @phool: Yeah, I'm pretty sure geologists will point to the fact that the same theories about how the Earth was shaped apply to other planets as well. Similar geology should -- somewhere -- produce the same visual look. Erosion is erosion is erosion.

    That said, the pictures are still very enjoyable. #space

    Wow... stunning images! But also, when buried 30 meters under the surface of either planet, at the poles, they are eerily and uncannily similar as well. #space

    My theory that bombing the moon will release an ancient magic that will give us all super powers was completely wrong. How will I continue living now?! #nasa

    I am still pretty upset about bombing the moon, even for science. The moon has done nothing to us.
    Outside of that lunacy thing, anyway. #nasa

    Operation Beat-The-Living-Shit-Out-Of-The-Moon was a rousing success. Thanks to our pre-emptive strike against the Moon, there isn't a single celestial object that will fuck with us.

    That's right, Ceres. If you or any of your piece-of-shit asteroid friends want to start shit with us, we'll fucking nuke you to the Kuiper Belt. #nasa

    Can I skip the satellite and instead send myself into orbit? I'll figure out a way to get myself back down to earth on my own.
