Well Rosetta isn't going to get to 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (Chury) till 2014, but it's not to early to set up a thread. There are a bunch of earth fly-bys, a Mars encounter at 200km in 2007 and a few asteriod passes. Not to mention the mission to land on the comet itself.
Only another nine and a half years to go. |

Saw this interesting item in the Planetary Exploration Newsletter, but before you get excited, there is no OSIRIS data at all released yet (nor VIRTIS, either).
QUOTE [NASA] PDS SMALL BODIES NODE AND ESA PLANETARY SCIENCE ARCHIVE ANNOUNCE RELEASE OF ROSETTA ORBITER DATA Small Bodies Node (SBN) of the NASA Planetary Data System and ESA Planetary Science Archive (PSA) are pleased to announce release of the data of Rosetta mission (orbiter instruments). The release contains the data acquired before the asteroid Steins flyby, i.e. calibration, commissioning, Earth swingby, and cruise (including some observations of comet 9P/Tempel 1) data. The data can be seen at and downloaded from the PDS SBN website: http://pdssbn.astro.umd.edu/missions/rosetta/ and from the PSA ftp site: ftp://psa.esac.esa.int/pub/mirror/INTERNA...OSETTA-MISSION/ The sites don't seem to suggest that they'll be archiving Navcam data at all -- I wonder if ESA has any plans to release that? I'll have to ask. -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.
