thanks for the new picture.
Great pictures coming in one after another. This is awesome, I appreciate it!
Had to be said after some complained lately.
Same here, thanks.
Still, this is the Navcam. I am sure that much higher resolution images from Osiris are already available, and not being shared with the public 🙁
Wowsers! Thankyou for posting these navcam images and giving us all an extra treat during this crucial last approach phase. Bravo to all at ESA and applause for Rosetta for performing so admirably… she’s doing an awesome job too!
(To my eyes, the “Rubber Duck” now looks like “E.T.” ! )
Thanks for the better class of Captchas!
This is a tremendous achievement so far, landing on the Comet with Philae will give, ‘Out of this world pictures’.
Pity that more info. is not forthcoming but understand why!
Brilliant work by the ESA and associated teams. This is something the world should be proud of and supporting. Can’t wait till we see the closeups of the comet surface in a few weeks.
Great images! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks a lot for the last NAVCAM picture !
Thanks, above all, for having done some responce to the requests of a large number of people strongly interested in this historic mission
Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to say thanks, it’s appreciated!
