For the first time in nearly a quarter century, ESA's Rosetta mission will bring new information on oner of the most mysterious of celmestial bodies: comets. The objective is to carry an orbiter to comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, and to place a lander of its surface.
Comets are ice-rich bodies that become prominent when heat from the sun causes their trapped volatiles to sublimate. Then their most distinctive features: the coma and tail become visible.
After having dropped a lander on the comet, the Rosetta orbiter will continue to move around it at many different positions.
