VIDEO FROM THE SURFACE OF A COMET

This is truly incredible.

Details:

Remember Rosetta? That comet-chasing European Space Agency (ESA) probe that deployed (and accidentally bounced) its lander Philae on the surface of Comet 67P? This GIF is made up of images Rosetta beamed back to Earth, which have been freely available online for a while. But it took Twitter user landru79 processing and assembling them into this short, looped clip to reveal the drama they contained.

“A Colorful ‘Landing’ on Pluto

What would it be like to actually land on Pluto? This movie was made from more than 100 images taken by NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft over six weeks of approach and close flyby in the summer of 2015. The video offers a trip down onto the surface of Pluto -- starting with a distant view of Pluto and its largest moon, Charon -- and leading up to an eventual ride in for a "landing" on the shoreline of Pluto's informally named Sputnik Planitia.”

DIY project : Glowing bike with ultraviolet LEDS

“Les vélos phosphorescents sont très à la mode ces derniers temps (surtout les fixies...) et il faut admettre qu'ilssont un bon moyen d'allier "style" et sécurité routière ! Le principal défaut de la peinturephosphorescente est qu'elle perd rapidement de son intensité lorsqu'on l'éloigne d'une source lumineuse. Parexemple, les vélos phosphorescents "classiques", en plus d'être chers, ne restent lumineux que 10 minutes avant dedevoir être "rechargés" à la lumière pour que l'effet phosphorescent réapparaisse.“
