This is not a hot take lmfaoooo
Most of us know weโre not good, we play for literal fun because of that reason. Majority donโt have all the time in the world to play nor the capacity to care that much to be good. People just wanna enjoy things.
Especially the good things, the big amazing breakthroughs! The love, the family, the friends, the beauty, the joy.. don't ever think it can't happen to you too!
The math on this image is insane.
New Horizons transmitted at 2,000 bits per second from 3 billion miles away. Slower than a 1990s dial-up modem. It took 16 months to download all the flyby data.
The spacecraft had to hit a target box 100km wide, arriving within 150 seconds of schedule, after 9 years of flight. Miss it and the preloaded observation commands point at empty space.
Ten days before arrival, the spacecraft crashed and went into safe mode. Engineers had 72 hours to restore everything.
The probe is now 5 billion miles out, still whispering data back to Earth. We got 50 gigabits of Pluto photos using technology slower than your phoneโs bluetooth.
Commissioner Bonsignore is a 31-year FDNY veteran of the department and a 9/11 first responder. She replaces Mayor Adamโs commissioner, who has never been a firefighter nor previously worked at the FDNY. Interesting that you left that part out.
