The Cliffs of Comet Churyumov�Gerasimenko

COSMIC MESSAGE
These towering cliffs are on Comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko, imaged by the Rosetta spacecraft. The cliffs are about one kilometer high, but the comet's low gravity means a jump from them would likely be survivable. Rosetta orbited the comet for over two years, studying its surface and composition.
