Rosetta: a ten year's journey to a comet
... I am sure you've seen some of these shots. The satellite Rosetta has taken close-ups of the comet 67P / Churyumov–Gerasimenko. If you treat some of the latest ones with brightness / contrast, you can even see some jets! I guess there is more to come ...

... photos now look even more dramatic. The first one is taken off the web, the second (three of four) I manipulated a bit, as I would use false colour to visualize effects in my research.

Guess I won't be seeing 67P / Churyumov–Gerasimenko through my little instrument:

Interesting, Scott! Some aspects of the image processing reminds me of one of my activities: (intravital) fluorescence imaging.

Please tell me more about what you image. The biological nature of your business sounds much more interesting than the aerospace programs I worked on for 41 years!

Have you heard also about the New Horizons project? It was launched in 2006 towards Pluto, and will be finally arriving this summer, July to be precise:
http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/index.php That's a long damn way away! But eager to see first-ever photos of this planet. Yes, to me it's still a planet. |

... I am waiting for Pluto, too. And also for Ceres! The satellite "Dawn" will be there at around March 6th, 2015!
