Is there going to be any kind of 'live' stream/event happening? I'd love to set aside some time to watch it.
Edit: wow, the orbits in the linked video look insane. I had no idea the comet was rotating so much with respect to the orbiter too (I appreciate the video is sped up).
It is a shame this mission has not gotten more press, but I hope it will be covered more once the landing happens on the 12th. Landing _on_ a comet is awesome, and getting to that point and orbiting a comet is an impressive feat.
Everybody should be conscious that every little outreach frustrated by an embargo is taking money away from the next missions and teams; maybe if someone had been more restrictive before, Rosetta itself wouldn't have ever happened.
It's been a hell of a week for space enthusiasts (myself included) with the Antares crash and recent Virgin failure, so it feels extraordinary to hear that other projects are a success (or will be in 11 days).
