So NASA redid the famous 1972 ‘Blue Marble’ photograph of Earth to give it that crisp HD shine.
Of course, in the process, they decided to make USA the centrepiece, unlike the original 1972 image which has Africa at the centre.
USA! USA!
So Abbott said something that was misinterpreted by aboriginals/hippies to be a threat, then the abohipperals overreacted by banging on the glass of the restaurant Abbott and the PM were in, which the AFP misinterpreted as a threat of harm, then AFP overreacted by storming out of the building with a giant bullet proof shield, shoving protestors, photographers, and other policemen out of the way, causing the PM to fall over and lose her shoe. Now the media is filled with exaggerated headlines about how the PM was almost attacked by protesters.
Why are crazy people in charge of everything.

No, Gotye. Please. You know you’re not worthy and that nobody likes you anyway.
I don’t know what demographic predominantly voted in the past two years of the Hottest 100, but I suspect they are fourteen years old, female, and spend their weekends updating facebook about how crunk they are between bouts of posting pictures of them duckfacing into the mirror wearing hipster costumes in the toilets of clubs they are not legally old enough to enter.
Getting mobbed by kangaroos. I am relatively scared of kangaroos - at least now just the big ones who will mess you up if you come near their babies, but these kangas were so beautiful! Two had joeys that popped their heads out of their pouches every so often - one had all it’s fur but the other was still a whitish colour, so precious.
If you’re ever near Port Lincoln in South Australia, go to Glen Forest animal park. It’s the best place ever - they have heaps of animals including donkeys, goats, alpacas, peacocks, and even an ostrich that are all friendly (the ostrich has an attitude though - I liked him) and you can feed them for $2 a bag. Plus entry is only $12 per adult, and less for kidlings. Way better than a zoo. It’s someone’s personal property and their farm and you can tell the animals are all well loved and treated well.
news.com.au’s 32 year old foetus.
Which one are you? ;)
I’m surprised you posted this as you seem to be responsible for at least 30% of the gross national output of dumb girl poses.
Stunning image taken by the CIVA imaging instrument on Rosetta’s Philae lander just 4 minutes before closest approach at a distance of some 1000 km from Mars.
A portion of the spacecraft and one of its solar arrays are visible in nice detail. Beneath, the Mawrth Vallis region is visible on the planet’s disk. Mawrth Vallis is particularly relevant as it is one of the areas on the Martian surface where the OMEGA instrument on board ESA’s Mars Express detected the presence of hydrated clay minerals - a sign that water may have flown abudantly on that region in the very early history of Mars.
