Rosetta's Philae lander made a bumpy landing on Comet 67P on Nov. 12, 2014. The lander was supposed to produce the most detailed observations of a comet yet, but it got stuck in a dark crevice and ran out of power. ESA announced that they found the lander in a photo taken by Roset...
Here, we study the emergence of dust activity at sunrise on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko using high-resolution, stereo images from the OSIRIS camera onboard the Rosetta spacecraft, where the sources and formation of the jet-like features are resolved. We perform numerical simulations to ...

Rosetta, European Space Agency spacecraft that carried Philae, the first space probe to land on a comet. Rosetta was launched on March 2, 2004, by an Ariane 5 rocket from Kourou, French Guiana, on a 10-year mission to Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The
In August 2014, ESA's Rosetta Spacecraft will rendezvous with Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko and deploy the Philae lander. See photos from the Rosetta comet probe.
In 2015, ESA's Rosetta spacecraft detected the boulder shifting approximately 140 meters northward near the comet's perihelion. A team led by Shi Xian from the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences analyzed high-resolution images and thermal data, concluding that uneve...
Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, which theEuropean Space Agencyexplored for two years using its Rosetta probe, takes its name from itsdual-lobe shape— which gives it a duck-like head, neck and body. Now, thanks to a new three-dimensional analysis of images from the Rosetta mission, resear...
Actually, what it sent down wasthis 360-degree panorama(shot from above) made up of multiple images taken by its CIVA-P imaging system (click the photo for full res): Philae’s 3 feet can be seen in different parts of the photograph, but, sadly, because the harpoon system meant to an...
