(Reuters) - The European Space Agency landed a probe on a comet on Wednesday, a first in space exploration and the climax of a 10-year-odyssey, but an anchoring system problem may hamper planned investigations into the origins of Earth and the solar system.
Rosetta reached the comet, a roughly 3-by-5 km rock discovered in 1969, in August after a journey of 6.4 billion km that took 10 years, five months and four days - a mission that cost close to 1.4 billion euros ($1.8 billion).
Meanwhile, with 1.8 BILLION spent to land of piece of shit on a space rock homeless people everywhere celebrate
"Yay! Says here 1.8 billion was put to good use."
