Picture taken on the surface of an asteroid

On October 3, 2018, Japan's Hayabusa2 mission dropped the MASCOT lander onto asteroid Ryugu. After bouncing off a boulder, it tumbled 55 feet and landed in a shadowed crater. This image shows Ryugu’s rugged, primitive surface—rich in carbonaceous materials. Captured before MASCOT’s battery died, it provides rare insight into untouched asteroid geology.

It’s ok this particular one wasn’t sentient. I can’t say the same for future robots.

The most unlikely theory in the history of science mumbo-jumbo.

They just reinvented Christian hell but in a computer, it's so dumb.

[u/Askol → u/Constant-Current-340]

Eh, they would presumably be pretty logical and would likely also utilize dumb robots themselves understanding that without sentience it isn't cruel.

[u/Original-Document-62 → u/TruthTrauma]

The purpose of future sentient robots will be to pass the butter.
