Details:
When the European Space Agency launched their Rosetta probe to Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko some 10 years ago few expected the monumental task of actually landing on the comet would be successful, but they were! Using the SLOOH remote 50cm telescope in the Canary Islands have FINALLY been successful in imaging this faint small comet as you can see in this inverted 10 minute exposure. Not much to see considering the spectacular views from Rosetta and the landing device itself on the surface.
