Rosetta Osiris 12

A feast of new osiris photos from comet 67p. Rosetta was a space probe built by the european space agency launched on 2 march 2004. Scientists released the osiris image viewer to make the amazing images of comet 67p acquired by the rosetta spacecraft easily accessible on the internet.

Rosetta osiris 12. First spacecraft to orbit a cometary nucleus rosetta nov. Rosettas osiris camera instrument. The advanced high performance imaging system will be pivotal for the success of the rosetta mission. Rosettas osiris narrow angle camera captured this image of comet 67pchuryumov gerasimenko at 0120 gmt from an altitude of about 16 km above the surface.

The release included data from many of its instruments but i only have eyes for one of them at least initially. This image of the earth was captured by the osiris instrument on board rosetta as the spacecraft approached earth for the missions third and final swingby. Osiris the high resolution camera. Along with philae its lander module rosetta performed a detailed study of comet 67pchuryumovgerasimenko 67p.

It was launched as the third cornerstone mission of the esas. Rosetta and philae rosetta was a european deep space probe launched on what was originally projected to be an 115 year mission to rendezvous orbit study and to land on the comet 67pchuryumov gerasimenko. The optical spectroscopic and infrared remote imaging system osiris is the main imaging system of the rosetta mission. It consists of two cameras one narrow angle and one wide angle.

During its journey to the comet the spacecraft flew three times by earth by mars and the asteroids 21 lutetia and 2867 steins. Rosettas historic 12 year mission. The optical spectroscopic and infrared remote imaging system osiris is the scientific camera system onboard the rosetta spacecraft figure 1. Last week the rosetta mission released a large quantity of science data to the worldwide public.

First spacecraft to land on a comet philae in depth. The image was acquired with the osiris narrow angle camera nac from a distance of 633 000 km on 12 november 2009 at 1228 utc. The images were taken on 2 september by the osiris narrow angle camera as the orbiter came within 27 km of the surface. Less than a month before the end of the mission rosettas high resolution camera has revealed the philae lander wedged into a dark crack on comet 67pchuryumovgerasimenko.
