I've just watched the last of the miners in Chile being successfully rescued - 33 men in under 22 hours! There are 6 more "lifts" to come, those of the rescuers that so bravely went down to aid the trapped men, but there doesn't seem to be any reason to doubt that the Fenix II capsule won't be able to finish the job - what a piece of kit that is!

What an astonishing demonstration of the human spirit triumphing over adversity this story has been. From the miners themselves, to the people on the ground that kept searching for them & then the entire rescue effort. Utterly amazing.

The courage, skill & commitment shown by everyone involved has been truly moving to watch & I for one (& for once!) am proud to be human.

Sorry, just wanted to share my happiness...
