| Description: | Rosetta is ESA’s comet-chasing mission. Launched in March 2004, it will be the first mission to fly alongside and attempt to land a probe on a comet. With details of how the mission plans to orbit comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko as they head towards the inner Solar System, this brochure describes Rosetta’s 10-year journey to the comet and how the mission hopes to unlock the mysteries of how the Solar System evolved |
