He said he's most excited about 67P's interior, which could hold clues about the origin of our solar system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Initial results from CONSERT suggest the comet's exterior is covered in a layer of dust, then very hard ice. But the core seems to be less dense, something McKeegan says was a bit of a surprise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don’t know exactly what goes on inside a comet,\" he said. \"Comets are samples of the very early solar system, at a time when the solar system was first forming. We’re very interested to know -- what was the composition of that cloud of gas? We’re interested in seeing what all was there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McKeegan said a prevailing theory is that comets and asteroids delivered water to the Earth early in our planet's life. Philae and Rosetta's analysis of the molecular makeup of the comet's ice could solidify that theory, or turn it upside down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10351720\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/11/NAVCAM_141117_mosaic.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-10351720\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/11/NAVCAM_141117_mosaic-800x650.jpg\" alt=\"Rosetta delivered this four-image NAVCAM mosaic comprising images of Comet 67P/C-G on Nov. 17.

ESA scientists know the drill went down and came up again, but they don't yet know if it was able to deliver any stuff of which comets are made into the lander's body for analysis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a possibility that the lander will power-up when the comet gets closer to the sun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Everybody’s got their fingers crossed that eventually we’ll get enough sunlight to recharge its batteries, and they’ll do some more experimenting,\" McKeegan said. \"There’s some data they don’t have and they’d like to get that. This is still pretty extraordinary. The fact they were able to get it on the comet from 316 million miles away, that’s pretty extraordinary.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 5:20 p.m. Friday, Nov. 14\u003c/strong>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Philae, we hardly knew ye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The little comet lander with a lot of luck is completing a lightning round of science experiments on the surface of Comet 67P before it powers down, exhausted and unable to recharge its batteries with solar energy because it ended up in a shadow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that sounds not so lucky, consider that Philae bounced twice after hitting the comet initially. A harpoon system intended to blast into the comet's surface and anchor the lander failed to fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Science/Rosetta/Three_touchdowns_for_Rosetta_s_lander\" target=\"_blank\">European Space Agency reports\u003c/a> the lander lifted from the surface for almost two hours and traveled a full kilometer across the comet's surface before touching down again. A shorter, seven-minute lift carried Philae to its final landing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Philae re-established communication with Rosetta at about 2:30 p.m. PST on Friday and quickly confirmed it had drilled into the comet's surface.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Philae2014/status/533389606302261248\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then it appears to have successfully lifted and righted itself. (Pictures the lander had previously sent back to Earth showed one of its three legs in the air, leading ESA scientists to believe it may have landed on its side.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Philae2014/status/533392948252409856\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the toils began to take their toll. Philae's battery charge started to plummet after 3:37 p.m. PST.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Philae2014/status/533403430489178112\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the lander managed to take another round of images -- that have not yet made it here -- and to measure the core of the comet with its on-board radar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At 4:09 p.m. PST, Philae began communicating between the Rosetta mothership and its radar instrument, Concert:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Philae2014/status/533411331937165312\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And at 4:28 p.m. PST, ESA Operations confirmed Philae had switched to stand-by mode. All its instruments powered down, but it continued to transmit information. The Rosetta Mission acknowledged Philae's hard work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/ESA_Rosetta/status/533419819581063168\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But take heart; know Philae could rise again, if only briefly.
