Very cool. I like these visualizations. People can somewhat appreciate the complexity of such missions.

When I was young I always thought if you need a spacecraft to land on something, you go the opposite direction of its orbit and then wait until you collide head-on with it and hope the parachute can save the spacecraft

We know that earth rotates in opposite direction, Scientist found new layer. Now the info is reached to the layer that earth is in opposite direction so earthquake coming and the layer is in bad condition
