Comet presents the amazing story of the Rosetta space probe and its interstellar voyage to the comet Tchoury. Following a ten-year voyage and a journey spanning millions of kilometres through our Solar System, the Rosetta entered the comet's orbit.Its lander, Philae - a miniature science laboratory - landed directly on Tchoury's surface and was able to take the photographs presented here. Its mission - to find clues to the origins of our solar system and the emergence of life on Earth.
The book is built around the various phases in Rosetta's journey: leaving Earth, breaching its atmosphere and watching the lights of home recede, skirting the Moon and coming close to Mars, plunging into the cosmos' starry void and approaching the comet, and, finally, landing on Tchoury.The photographs are accompanied by a text that reflects on the objectives of the mission and the accomplishment of such a technological feat for humanity. This triumph of scientific endeavour brought back a raft of incredible new photographs, the best of which are featured here. Detailed captions provide the reader with accessible scientific information, enabling them to get to the heart of the subject.
