You fuckers are sleeping on Jupiter’s moons. I don’t want to ever hear one more person whine about Pluto if they can’t tell me a single fact about the in-every-way-superior Ganymede.

hands like theirs built a system that has endured generations. and hands like theirs are adding to that system today.

unknown does not mean unappreciated.
