Now, it's time to open a new section devoted to the landing of the Philae lander itself on the nucleus of Comet 67P C-G. Also to answer better the earlier post, http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...st&p=212943 and for your information, here is the quick summary (as a "pdf" file) of the events that are expected to occur during landing on the nucleus and after : it's the timeschedule on which we are working to set up our EPO event in Paris.

For those interested to attend this historic landing and take this opportunity to fly to Paris (and pay us a visit : TPS / UMSF Members, please, tell us in advance), here below is the link to the only other official ESA/CNES event set-up for the landing of Philae (with the one held in ESOC in Darmstadt). As you may know, the engineering of the Philae lander is under the responsibility of CNES (the French Space Agency), as well as its CIVA cameras and instruments suite. This event will take place at the National Science Museum (Cite des Sciences) in Paris : http://www.cite-sciences.fr/fr/au-programm...-sur-la-comete/ ...and thanks again for your kind support over all those nice comments and posts ! Enjoy ! PS : Societe Astronomique de France is the partner of TPS in France since 1982 |
