The European Space Agency’s (ESA) Rosetta mission to Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko continues to produce striking, up-close data regarding the celestial wanderer.
ESA has issued tell-all images that focus on Apis and Atum regions on the comet.
Context imagery show details of Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko’s surface features close to regional boundaries on the comet’s large lobe, and the transition through the neck to the small comet lobe.
