ROLIS camera - approaching 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
This stereographic image of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko was acquired by the ROLIS camera, located on the bottom of the Philae lander . Two of the images, acquired two minutes apart on 12 November 2014 – about an hour before the first touchdown at 16:32 CET – were used by the ROLIS team under the leadership of Stefano Mottola from the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) to produce this stereographic image. To appreciate the 3D effect, the image must be viewed with red-blue glasses. The resolution is three metres per pixel.
