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 spacecraft, a robotic laboratory, to its surface to conduct studies and resolutions from the ground and subsoil of the space 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 make a smooth landing on the comet – since due to the lack of gravitys the device bounced around until it ended up in a spot among rocks where there wasn't enough light to function as it was normally programmed - it managed to carry out many important tasks and analyzes before it finally stopped working.
The European Space Agency (ESA) has released a series of photographs recorded by Rosetta's camera during its fine business Philae.
