Welcome to a Comet
The Rosetta Mission lander has successfully landed on the surface of C67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Philae's technology can be seen in the bottom left side of the image and the device bounced twice on the surface before settling near a shadowing wall (blocking some illumination that was destined to power Philae through the solar panels). All in all, the landing has gone as planned and information is being sent back during communication windows.
