ROSETTA is a European Space Agency mission for the study of a cometary nucleus environment and its evolution in the inner solar system. To enhance the scientific capabilities of the mission, the Orbiter spacecraft will carry one Probe, called ROSETTA Lander which will land on the comet surface for in situ investigations. One of the key subsystems of the Lander is the drill, sample and distribution subsystem (DS2), a robotic tool able to collect and distribute cometary samples to the on board analysis instruments. |
