Summary

Description
English: Philae touchdown
  • Few things could be more fascinating or demanding in the history of European space travel than the Rosetta comet mission. The lander, Philae, will separate from its parent craft on 11 November 2014, touch down on the comet and immediately fire harpoons to anchor itself on the surface. The two spacecraft will then accompany the comet on its month-long journey to the point at which it is closest to the Sun.
Deutsch: Philae setzt auf dem Kometen auf
  • Die Kometen-Mission Rosetta ist eine der faszinierendsten und zugleich anspruchsvollsten Unternehmungen der europäischen Raumfahrt. Am 12. November 2014 sollte sich das Landegerät Philae vom Mutterschiff lösen, auf dem Kometen aufsetzen und sich sofort mit Harpunen im Eis verankern. Jedoch lösten die Harpunen nicht wie geplant aus. Beide begleiteten den Schweifstern auf seinem mehrmonatigen Weg zu seinem sonnennächsten Punkt.
