Camacha Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 No, looks like that was just new data. Not quite confirmed.Landing gear is compressed, so it should be sitting on the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibb31 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Agreed, it's quite embarrassing that the President of an international space agency is such a poor English-speaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camacha Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Well, at leazt he iz nat talken laik ziz.It's funny to see so many people speaking different languages and using so many accents.To me, all the nationalities only add to the project. Even if they sometimes have heavy accents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PakledHostage Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I disagree. His English is far better than the vast majority of people's French. We can understand him just fine despite his strong accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camacha Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Agreed, it's quite embarrassing that the President of an international space agency is such a poor English-speaker.It is a European project, so French and German are as suitable as English. I don't understand - people are criticizing other languages and also accents. Why don't you learn the appropriate languages, if that is all such an issue? This project is not about language, it is about monumental (international) scientific progress! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
