Aerospace coordinator for the German Government giving congrats to the team now.

So far it sounds like they have confirmed touchdown on the comet, though haven’t seen any pictures yet. Perhaps after the rounds of congratulations....

I’m just glad they’re all speaking mainly in English. Suppose it’s the language of space.

This guy just mentioned that from conception to now has been 25 years. Launch was in 2004. Good for them
