Can't wait for February and hopefully Perseveran reaches and lands on Mars successfully

Sometimes it’s good to look back on dark times when you know they’ve passed. Look at this shite:

Robot boat completes a three-week Atlantic mission A UK boat has just provided an impressive demonstration of the future of robotic maritime operations. The 12m Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV) Maxlimer has completed a 22-day-long mission to map an area of the seafloor in the Atlantic. SEA-KIT International, which developed the craft, "skippered" the entire outing via satellite from its base in Tollesbury in eastern England. The mission was part-funded by the European Space Agency. Robot boats promise a dramatic change in the way we work at sea. Already, many of the big survey companies that run traditional crewed vessels have started to invest heavily in the new, remotely operated technologies. Freight companies are also acknowledging the cost advantages that will come from running robot ships. But "over-the-horizon" control has to show it's practical and safe if it's to gain wide acceptance. Hence, the demonstration from Maxlimer. FULL REPORT

Chong on the right, Bittencourt on the left. There's also rumours regarding Jozwiak, so that could also be a possible solution for the left side. Nürnberg's Hack could be an alternative option. Hope we don't play Bittencourt in the central midfield with Klaassen, that's just asking for trouble... Have very high hopes for Schmid, will need some time to adapt but his vision, creativity and intelligent passing is something I'm excited for.

I see the Netherlands have joined in as well now.. siding with the French and doing the same thing... Gather your pitchforks peasants it's war!!!

Done quite well for himself Mo has.

This couple standing less than 600 meters away from the explosion were extremely lucky to survive the blast.
