More images from Rosetta of comet 67P/C-G : Comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko in 3D – The Planetary Society

A 3D view of the comet composed from images taken by the OSIRIS camera
and NavCam. The resolution of the two cameras is quite different, so it took
some processing to make it work as a stereo pair. The left-eye image is the
original OSIRIS photo; the right-eye image is a synthetic one made by
warping the OSIRIS photo to the shapes of features visible in the NavCam photo.

Close-up detail of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The image
was taken by Rosetta’s OSIRIS narrow-angle camera and downloaded
today, 6 August. The image shows the comet’s ‘head’ at the left of the
frame, which is casting shadow onto the ‘neck’ and ‘body’ to the right.
The image was taken from a distance of 120 km and the image
resolution is 2.2 metres per pixel.
