The comet landing module "Fila" successfully woke up aboard the probe "Rosette"
On Habré already published articles and notes about the most interesting project: the space probe "Rosette", whose main task is to study the comet 67P / CG Churyumov-Gerasimenko. On board the "Rosetta" is the Phil landing module, which is supposed to land on the comet's body.
In January of this year, the Rosetta probe successfully woke up, and a video with footage from the probe’s control center was posted on the Web, where you can see the joyful participants in the project who received a signal from the probe: ')
Now the landing module, which “declared” its normal functioning, “woke up”.
There was even an entry on the probe twitter, @ Philae2014 , which reports a wake up after 39 months of “sleep”, and the normal completion of the installation procedure for the software necessary for the further execution of the probe program.
The meeting of the interplanetary probe "Rosette" with the comet will be held in August of this year, and in November the landing probe "Phil" will fall to the surface of the comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
