I like the image I have in my head of some tired engineer going into work every day, dejectedly turning on his computer for seven months, and then one day.... "Hello Earth! Can you hear me?"

This is such awesome news. I just assumed that they had given up on it completely since I hadn't really seen any updates in quite some time.

That sounds like it would be really cool to watch. I've enjoyed looking at all the images that have been shot back, but it would definitely be way more interesting to have a continuous flow of of information about it, even if some video of it has to be CGI.

This is fantastic news. The amount of data that they (hopefully) should be receiving in the near future will greatly enhance our understanding of non-planetary bodies.

I had almost lost hope about it since I hadn't heard anything in such a long time. Really glad to hear the good news now! Hope they will be able to gather all the data they want now when lil Philae is alive and kickin'!
