• ESA Observes Rare Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS - A visitor from another solar system. 4.7.25 • Astronomers from ESA’s Near-Earth Object Coordination Centre (NEOCC), part of the Agency’s Planetary Defence Office, made these observations of the newly discovered interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS on 2 July 2025. The comet is only the third of its kind ever observed, following the famous 1I/ʻOumuamua in 2017 and 2I/Borisov in 2019. It was first spotted on 1 July 2025 by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Las

In 2014, the European Space Agency (ESA) successfully landed a probe on Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko as part of the Rosetta mission. Here’s how it went: • Rosetta spacecraft launched in 2004 and traveled for 10 years before reaching the comet in August 2014. • Once in orbit, Rosetta released its lander, Philae, which touched down on November 12, 2014 — making it the first spacecraft to ever land on a comet. • Philae’s landing wasn’t perfect — its harpoons failed to anchor it, so it bounced tw

☄️ 3I/ATLAS comet update! On 3 October, our ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) turned its eyes towards interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it passed close to Mars. Together with Mars Express, ExoMars TGO had the closest view of the comet of all of our spacecraft. It looked towards the interstellar interloper from just 30 million km away during its closest approach to the Red Planet.

The 3I/ATLAS comet update you’ve been waiting for! ☄️ On 3 October, our ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) turned its eyes towards interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it passed close to Mars. We will next get the opportunity to view the comet with our Juice spacecraft, which is on its way to Jupiter, during the peak activity at the end of October. Together with Mars Express, ExoMars TGO had the closest view of the comet of all of our spacecraft. It looked towards the interstellar interloper from just 30
