Cool but I do think people misunderstand the size of these things. Little is not the right adjective

[–] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's not that small no, it's roughly the size of a car, but compared to other things we build on earth it is pretty small.

[–] Takumidesh@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Yea, it's a hell of a lot smaller than the rocket that put there.

Or even just compared to the fact that it’s basically alone on a planet way bigger than it.

This is definitely a sad comic and always worth the read

[–] akintudne@reddthat.com 25 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Someone else flipped the ending.

Makes me want to cry but tears of happy wholesomeness not tears of sadness

I sometimes think about how fragile we humans are, but capable of doing absolutely amazing things like this. Then have constant reminders of how tragic it is that we waste the little time we have being self absorbed, hateful, and greedy… not to mention the whole killing each other thing.

Ah, well… at least we have weed.
