Comet spacecraft
Comet exploration spacecraft, computer artwork. The unmanned probe (upper frame) is approaching a comet, a body of ice and dust from the outer parts of the solar system. Comets are studied because they contain material from the early stages of the formation of the solar system. Several probes have been launched to study comets. The Stardust probe has collected samples of dust from Comet Wild-2, and will return to Earth in 2006. The Rosetta probe is another mission to study a comet, and it should reach its target in 2015

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Comet spacecraft, a remarkable feat of technological advancement in space exploration. In this stunning computer artwork, we witness the unmanned probe gracefully approaching a comet, an enigmatic celestial body composed of ice and dust from the outer reaches of our solar system. Comets have long fascinated scientists due to their potential to unlock secrets about the early formation of our cosmic neighborhood. Numerous probes have been launched into space with the sole purpose of studying these elusive comets. The Stardust probe has successfully collected precious samples of dust from Comet Wild-2 and is set to return to Earth in 2006, carrying invaluable insights into our origins. Another pioneering mission highlighted here is the Rosetta probe, which embarks on an ambitious journey towards its target comet with an anticipated arrival in 2015. This awe-inspiring illustration not only represents humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge but also serves as a testament to our boundless curiosity about the universe we inhabit. It symbolizes how cutting-edge technology and scientific ingenuity propel us forward into uncharted territories, unraveling mysteries that were once beyond our grasp. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that even amidst vast expanses of darkness and uncertainty, human determination continues to push boundaries and explore new frontiers for the betterment of mankind's understanding.
