O Director-Geral da ESA pronuncia-se a propósito do aniversário da missão Apollo 11   Jean-Jacques Dordain has been ESA's Director General since 2003. Será que o Homem voltará à Lua? Em caso afirmativo, quando e com que objectivos?  This image of the Moon was taken with by Rosetta's OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) at 07:36 CET on 13 November 2007, about nine hours after Rosetta's closest approach to Earth during one of its gravity assist manoeuvres.
OSIRIS has been designed to image faint objects, so a neutral density filter was placed in the optical path to reduce the sensitivity of the camera to one fiftieth. The above image was acquired through the far-focus red filter of the camera (750 nanometres). Release date: 20 Julho 2009 |
