Got the info from a Radio that CNES get a 2mn contact with Philae last nigth and 40 second of data.
Please take this info with due precautions waiting for confirmation before opening a new topic. http://tempsreel.nouvelobs.com/en-direct/a...-spatiales.html -------------------- |

I have at least one question Paolo.
How about MUPUS PEN (the hammering penetrator), are they going to run that again? They didn't list it in their risky instrument suite (they did mention MUPUS as one of the first experiments to be run, but then they were referring to the thermal sensors). Obviously you can't redeploy the penetrator, so I suppose it depends on how it lies. Edit: My questions aren't that important, but here is another one anyway. Perhaps a way too soon to speculate, but any chance they will try to move (hop) Philae when winter starts approaching again on its side of the comet hemisphere for an of chance of sampling yet another location? |
