Watch out! That shadow on the right hand side of the object in that picture is really a mouth! Don’t hide your spaceship in there.

That explains the size difference. All of my slag is about the size of a quarter dollar.

Yes, let’s give the girly men and women some credit, but this isn’t the first mission to a comet. We even had one mission that returned comet material to earth.
