'Agilkia': the landing site selected for the Philae craft after it ejects from the Rosetta orbiter. This image shows a mosaic of four individual frames from Rosetta's navigation camera, which features a 1 megapixel CCD camera supplied by e2v technologies. The landing site is the flat area near the top of the image, above a boulder-filled depression. Philae is set to touch down on the comet November 12. Credit: ESA. |
