Session ID#: 12830

Session Description:
The European Space Agency’s Rosetta spacecraft will make an unprecedented controlled crash onto comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in late September 2016, providing close scrutiny of the comet until the very end. This session will focus on scientific results from this final stage of Rosetta’s life. The session will also include correlative studies among instruments from all phases of the mission; studies that incorporate ground-based observations for better temporal coverage and perspective; theoretical modeling of cometary processes; and interrelationships among comets and other small bodies.
