Latest in a particularly frequent series, comeback of the day goes to this exchange shared by beerbellybegone over on Reddit.

‘A 1080p video has about 1.3gb per hour of video. It took the last rover over seven months to reach Mars. There are slightly over 5110 hours in seven months. That would mean a video for that mission would be over 6.5 terabytes.

‘And you know flat earthers are going to throw a fit unless it’s crisp, super high Def video. 4K would be closer to 80 terabytes. What a stupid request.’

‘I assume he believes we never actually put objects on the surface of Mars, similar to people believing people haven’t been on the Moon.’

‘Day one: Leaves Earth.

‘Days two-two hundred and twelve: Stars with Mars slowly growing.

‘Day two hundred and thirteen: Landed.

‘Asshole: “Pff, what a waste of time.”
