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 -------------------- |

If anyone is interested in Rosettas recent trajectory i made a small web application to look at it (goes even a little into the future). This is still a very early prototype so both comet and probe are only represented as simple cubes (that are not oriented correctly), but the flight path visualization is working. The pattern they are going to fly is pretty special (they didnt do anything like that up until now). To zoom out use the mouse wheel and you will have to wait a bit until all trajectory data is loaded.

@chuck0 This is fantastic. Thank you for making this. I had no idea they were zig-zagging like that since first contact. Keep it up!
