Rosetta spacecraft approaching asteroid
Rosetta spacecraft. Artwork of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Rosetta spacecraft's trajectory as it approached asteroid 2867 Steins (bottom) in September 2008. Stein is in the asteroid belt that lies between Mar (orange) and Jupiter (not seen). Rosetta was launched in March 2004 on a 10 year mission to study the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. It will rendezvous with the comet in mid 2014. It is the first mission designed to land on a comet. Rosetta is carrying instruments to map the comet's surface and probe its core,as well as the Philae lander. Philae will perform detailed analysis of the comet's surface,giving an insight into conditions during the formation of the solar system some 4.6 billion years ago. Earth's orbit is blue
