This stunning view of Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko shows what happens when its moves closer toward the Sun: it ejects gas and dust that gets left in its wake. And looks gorgeous, too. The image of ...
A sequence of images showing comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko moving against a background star field in the constellation Ophiuchus between March 27 and May 4, 2014 as the distance between the ...
The debate as to how Earth became a water-rich planet has been reignited following the publication of new research that points to a potential cosmic culprit: Jupiter-family comets. NASA scientists ...
New research indicates that the water on Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko has a molecular signature closely matching that of water found in Earth's oceans. This discovery revives the possibility that ...
