***jaw drops!!!*** Quick Rosetta update: Churyumov-Gerasimenko is a contact binary! Noyau de la comète 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko The YouTube video has been removed, and also the CNES page referenced in Emily's blog post. Try this link (in French). A Google search for "double nucleus Churyumov" should turn up other references. |
