Did you hear the one about the rocket scientist and the orang-utans? Neat video

So what do rocket scientists do on their days off? Mark Rober from NASA's JPL in Pasadena makes clever videos. In this one he manages to get very up close and personal with a bunch of orang-utans in a zoo.



It is a bit amazing that neither he nor Wired knew the difference between orang-utans and gorillas though...

In fact, neither did the tweeter at NASA:

@NASA: NASA ingenuity at its best! @wired highlights a NASA engineer capturing gorilla video close up! Watch the video! go.nasa.gov/wue2zA
