View this post on Hive: A new detailed model of Churyumov-Gerasimenko by the MiARD project


A crypto project which sets stakes of its users to zero has nothing to do with the basic ideas of blockchains and cryptocurrencies.
It's a shame to run down such a project and let it go to waste in that way.
As funds on STEEM aren't safe anymore, I moved all over to HIVE.

Glad to read some update about this. I followed it in the early days, but then lost attention. Thanks for bringing it here!

Thank you very much for your feedback @lemouth
Yeah, somehow Rosetta slipped into oblivion after the controlled crash. Perhaps it is also because the evaluation of such amounts of data takes a lot of time and are published late after a mission.

Yes, time is always needed. This is jsut true for any (especially large-scale whatever is the scale) experiments :)

I always appreciate when writers are kind enough to describe the distance of space journeys in years, as I find nearly impossible to make sense of numbers such as '6.4 billion kilometers' 😅

I had heard about the Rosetta Mission before in the news, but I wasn't aware of its purpose, or of the planned collision. It is also new info for me to learn that the Rosetta Mission research is still ongoing, despite the crash!

Well, thank you for this informative, straight-forward write-up @astrophoto.kevin

Best :)

Thank you very much for your comment @abigail-dantes
Above a certain size, the distances and sizes are no longer so easily imaginable. Whereby I find it a bit of pity with a value in light years that the sheer distance is slightly lost. You first have to rethink this somehow into a normal traveling speed in order to understand the almost unattainable distance.

I think and hope that the Rosetta Mission will produce many more insights and publications. It will certainly take some time to process and analyze the complete data. Such data can also be included again and again in new calculations or new models can be calculated from it. In the end, a model raises new questions whose answers may be found in the data.

I am very pleased that this post was informative for you.

Greetz :-)

I've seen the gif of that surface so many times and I keep thinking I'll get tired of it. I never do.

I'm not getting tired of it either. Actually, it looks like looking out of the window at night in winter and it snows. But just the thought that it was taken on a comet at a distance of billions of kilometers is so breathtaking.
