During 2014, we saw many history-making moments come to fruition, including Rosetta touching down on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko; the beginning of construction on the Thirty Meter Telescope; the arrival of India's Mars Orbiter mission; the first test run on the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV), and comet Siding Spring's close encounter with Mars.
