  • @mrmikeVIVO Because it is light. It goes 10 times around Earth in one second.

    It is not easy to believe this stuff my friend!

  • They've got a nuka cola from fallout 3?

  • HOLY SHIT

  • These ppl at MIT are amazing. And honestly, how the fuck can any1 dislike this

  • you can look in your room and figure out which materials are fabric and which are wood...?

    cant we do that with our eyes?

    haha clasic case of 'look we made something really cool !! now quick ! try and make it sound like it might have some practical use in the future...'

  • @EphraimRodrigez no need to be mean about it, im just merely saying that the camera is fast at taking pictures at a trillion frames a second, and no the ISS is not a big floating trailer park to be, its a symbol of humanity going into space and exploring the unknown.

  • Pretty amazing! It sorta just looks like light moving across the object rather than through space.

  • The best news of the whole year! We can see the Aether!

  • big whoop
