ESA's Rosetta Spacecraft Orbits MarsAccording to a blog report cited by Reuters today, the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft has successfully executed a 'swing-by' manouver around Mars on its way to chase the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, expected to happen in 2014. The Bad Astronomy Blog says Rosetta will put a lander on the comet's surface. We need a model of this craft in our museum's collection! There is a 3D model with dimensions available on the ESA webside, so what are we waiting for?
