An example of simile in popular science writing:
"The result is that Rosetta's journey resembled something like a cosmic pinball game as it performed multiple close fly-bys of planets – the Earth in 2005, 2007 and 2009, and Mars in 2007 – four orbits around the Sun and two transits through the asteroid belt."
