The ESA spacecraft Rosetta has been orbiting a Comet, making science fiction a science reality. The Rosetta spacecraft has been analyzing the comet, including the recent discovery that comets probably smell awful. Check out the ESA website for Rosetta, which will be sending a lander, Philae, to the comet in November. The ESA also has a nice interactive media site that includes a graphic to show you exactly where Rosetta is!
