That looks nothing like the movie Deep Impact at all. Nice try ESA.

good oneNow, things are not looking good for Philae lander, that landed on comet and then ricocheted off it a kilometer away and then back to surface again, but in the another spot, and it seems that half or more of it's solar panels are in the shadow, permanently, and poor fella has only a 60h battery life left.
There is a good chance that, by gently maneuvering Philae, they could move it to a place with more sunlight and finish tests. If not, well... this is a great achievement nonetheless, and a great collaboration of more then 20 countries all over the world.
Fingers crossed for little guy.

Oh, I love BBC's Sky at night. Especially when they have advice for amateur star gazers, when they explain like to a child what star to search for and where from it is some nebula. Without that I would have to resort to saving money for computer driven telescope, and my wallet is too thin for that, at the moment. Haha, or keep looking at the Moon or Saturn, when available. God bless them

Yes. That thing is almost more useful than Adblocker.
To anyone who might be interested: BT's new project is an orchestra-meets-electronica (orchetronica!) album and concert consisting of reworks of old and new songs from his catalog. The concert seems to be a surefire thing for March in Miami, but the album needs $200,000 to get off the ground and he's not there yet with 15 days to go. If you're into his music, the perks for backing are almost naively insane - the $100 level basically gets you a third of his back catalog plus re-arranged and remastered versions of Ima and ESCM (two of his best three albums) the HD video of This Binary Universe, multiple unreleased film scores, stems galore and complete sheet music.
Link to the Kickstarter, there's a video and some half-assed demos of what the orchestral versions will be like: https://www.kickstar...electronic-opus
I swear I'll actually use this page for blabbing about my personal life and not promoting something at some point! Life has been rolling along in overwhelming ways recently - most of it quite good and some of it self inflicted, but still overwhelming! Adulthood is weird. I don't think I want in.

Here's a werid thing. I can play youtube videos that are embedded in this website just fine. But when I open up youtube to play videos I get a message saying "an error occurred". Although funnily enough it will play the adverts before the video just fine. Only started today. Anyone ever had that?

Yeah. But he's done miles better - his first album IMA is one of the most unique progressive trance records ever, ESCM is extremely eclectic, Movement In Still Life manages to bridge big beat and trance, and This Binary Universe is beyond words - it's an album everyone should hear before they die. He has a fair amount of pop/EDM oriented music in his catalog, but it's still interesting at its worst, even when he's working with NSync.

Had a listen to about half of the album tonight and it was quite alright so far but unortunately nothing too big of a deal to me. Nevertheless, he's got some nice ideas and a broad variety of instrumentalization going on. That's definately a plus. But for some reason nothing really stood out or were too memorable. Maybe I should give it a few more (full) listens.

I think you're referring to a sample of Bob James' Nautilus which is one of the most sampled songs in hip hop history.
At around 3.34 a little message comes up on the youtube clip below about it being a classic break. However I think other parts of the track have also been sampled.
I have a feeling that a big beat artist may have sampled it, or maybe DJ Shadow? So I haven't entirely answered your question as there are simply too many tracks that have borrowed from this. Good luck narrowing it down.
