So they've cloned Ansel Adams, raised him up and launched him into space.

it was actually the only major domestic german newspaper (it's a newspaper written in german located and published in a country with a german-speaking majority) who dared speak up against Hitler and publicly criticise and denounce his actions. they're liberals, but unfortunately too closely related to the banks.
arguably still one of the best german (language) newspaper you can get today though.

Every step of the way, feminists confirm that they don't actually give a single fuck about anyone but themselves and will say anything to get attention.

As manager of the Rosetta mission, Fred Jansen was responsible for the successful 2014 landing of a probe on the comet known as 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. In this fascinating and funny talk, Jansen reveals some of the intricate calculations that went into landing the Philae probe on a comet 500 million kilometers from Earth — and shares some incredible photographs taken along the way.
