After three years and a trip through our Keiper Belt, our Rosetta Probe is due to awaken today! It's just huge, we are going to study this comet...and then send a probe to land on it. I cannot wait to see any photos we get from this mission. I'm still recovering and not quite as with it as I'd like at this point...but I hope you enjoy and the live feed has been on all morning, waiting for the 6 hours the probe takes to reboot itself and then another 45 mintues to send a signal to us on Earth that it's awake again. (SO COOL)
