Its experts have just published a detailed model of the comet 67P Churyumov-Gerasimienko, of which the last is very loud.

After ten years from the start of the Earth to the comet probe Rosetta finally arrived. For five weeks she will release a lander Philae, which is to sit on the surface of a comet 67P. This is the first in the history of this type of complicated operation.

ESA encourages active participation in these studies. Published model comets can of course watch and enjoy, but one who has access to three-dimensional printer can afford to download the appropriate computer file and make your own mock-up.

Consisting of water, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide and ammonia, methane and methanol comet is several kilometers long, but the printed version can be of course much smaller.
