... Philae landing, continued ... the other day I mentioned that Randall Munroe of xkcd was planning to live-draw the landing; well, he did, and it's amazing!  You must go there and see it.  There are 142 panels in all, and you can rapidly page through them with your arrow keys to get the illusion of an animated movie.  Awesome...

By the way, I hope this isn't a spoiler, but the first few panels are just a growing dot, by design...
