Rosetta’s Comet Selfie: A Glimpse of a Twin-Lobed World
In a stunning celestial snapshot, the European Space Agency’s Rosetta spacecraft captured its own ‘selfie’ on October 7, 2014, offering a unique perspective of its target comet, 67P/Churyumumov-Gerasimenko.
At the time, Rosetta was an astonishing 472 million kilometers (293 million miles) from Earth, yet remarkably only 16 kilometers (10 miles) above the comet’s intriguing, double-lobed surface.
