Isithombe sosuku: Izithombe ezingu-70 zenkanyezi enomsila Churyumov-Gerasimenko

I-Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research kanye neFlensburg University of Applied Sciences bethula lo msebenzi I-Comet OSIRIS Image Archive: Noma yimuphi umsebenzisi we-inthanethi uyakwazi ukufinyelela iqoqo eliphelele lezithombe zenkanyezi enomsila 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

Masikhumbule ukuthi ucwaningo lwale nto lwenziwa yisiteshi esizenzakalelayo iRosetta. Wafika kunkanyezi enomsila ehlobo lika-2014 ngemva kohambo lwendiza lweminyaka eyishumi. I-Philae probe yaze yawela phezu komzimba, kodwa ngenxa yokungaphumeleli, yagcina isisethunzini futhi yaphelelwa amandla ngokushesha, yangena kumodi yokulala.

Isiteshi seRosetta senze izithombe ezinemininingwane yenkanyezi enomsila sisebenzisa isistimu ye-OSIRIS (Optical, Spectroscopic, kanye ne-Infrared Remote Imaging System). Sekukonke, kutholwe izithombe ezingaba ngu-70, ezitholakala manje ingobo yomlando ehlelwe kahle.

Kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi umkhumbi-mkhathi iRosetta wawuseduze nenkanyezi enomsila engu-67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko iminyaka engaphezu kwemibili - kwaze kwaba ngo-September 2016. Ngemva kwalokhu, isiteshi saphonswa phezu kwalo mzimba we-cosmic, sayeka ukuba khona.

Masingeze lokho ngaphambilini ingobo yomlando yezithombe ezivela esiteshini esizenzakalelayo se-Rosetta kwenziwe obala I-European Space Agency (ESA).
