Rosetta's Rendezvous

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Rosetta spacecraft's narrow-angle camera captured this detailed image of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko's nucleus. After 10 years and billions of kilometers of travel, Rosetta approached within 285 kilometers of its target. The image shows the comet's curious double-lobed shape, which is about 4 kilometers across.
