Tech Crunch reports that NASA has produced a video from images made by its Deep Space Climate Observatory. The spacecraft is in a Lissajous orbit around the Sun–Earth L1 Lagrange point, from which the sunlit side of the Earth can always be seen. The 167-second video (warning: has narration) was made from images collected over the course of a year.

    Just couldn't resist taking a selfie every day and posting a video to YouTube? Has NASA truly gone full-retard for social media? The time has come to defund.

    Oh come on, you can do better than that.
    You could have, for example, asked why, and how, Lisa convinced NASA to get something to orbit her juices, and using some clever word play.

    Instead, you go the fucktard route.
    3/10. You'll be held back a year at troll school with poor performances like that.
