Since this is really well done, I thought I'd post it -- I'm a huge fan of XKCD, and when I ran across this on YouTube, I just had to post it.

However, it's not really appropriate for the science-and-ops oriented Philae thread, so I decided to post it here.

Wonderful take on the landing, even if it doesn't follow through to the news of The Bounce.
