Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, shots from the Rosetta Spacecraft

From 10Km away the Rosetta has been taking some amazing pictures of the comet. 

For comparison in size, space artist Michael Carroll did a composite of the comet floating next to Japans Mt. Fuji.

The last pic is where the Rosetta spacecraft is right now and ESA has a awesome interactive where you can go forward and back in time, it’s badass. Play with it here: Rosetta Interactive. Do it! :D
