What he saw Philae; It is undoubtedly the scientific event of the year. The European boat Rosetta managed to reach and orbit comet 67/P Churyumov/Gerasimenko last August, and a month ago sent a probe to its surface, a robotic laboratory to conduct studies and analyzes from the ground and subsurface of the spacecraft rock.
The Philae spacecraft venture has provoked global interest and the public's interest turned for a few days to what happened 511 a million miles away from the Earth.
Although the Philae failed to land smoothly on the comet - since due to lack of gravity the device bounced continuously until it reached a point between rocks where there was not enough light to function as normally planned - it managed to complete many important works and analyzes before it finally ceases to function.
The European Space Agency (ESA) has released a series of photographs taken by camera of Rosetta during the thin businessto him Philae.
