Gotta hand it to them. This is a serious accomplishment, and they came through with flying colors.

Bringing back actual samples from another body in space is insanely difficult. The science, the math, the money, the luck. One step closer to DarkSpace becoming real! Woohoo!

It's "expected to contain" asteroid dust so here's hoping they don't have the cargo bug!

funny, did no one know we already have Ion Engine's? A lot of the stuff in DS is already here or close to becoming a reality.

Really cool tho that this is only the 4th time that someones been able to get samples from a celestial body.

It is one of those huge steps that will finally make dark space reality !!

Jap's craft did its job even after great hiccups (read the link) !!

That means we DON'T have fusion reactors. You don't have it until you haveit. That's like saying we have faster-than-light engines, but we just have to work out the kinks of how to move faster than light. We have the metal case it will go in though.
