When Was The Philae Used To Bring Back Information About The Comet

One day on November 12th, scientists sent the first probe to the comet, and it landed. The Probe (Philae) was sent to land on a comet in 2004 and decided to shut it down after a couple of years in 2011 to save energy, but when it landed it got stuck to where it couldn't see anything around it in passage 1: A success in space, by: Cameron Keady, And in passage 2: Comet probe may shed light on Earth's past, By: Ashley Yeager. The Philae was important for scientific research firstly, to bring back important information about the solar system, Next, revealing secrets about the comet s makeup, and lastly, getting pictures of the comet from Rosetta. First of all, Philae is an important gadget to bring back important information about the solar system.

This evidence shows that Philae was an important tool to bring back information about the comet (67p) because they studied rocks, dust and ice, so they could get a better understanding of the makeup of 67p. Keep in mind, Philae got stuck as well where it couldn't see anything. Next, Philae was good for bringing back information on the makeup of the comet with Philae s robotic feet. In passage 1 paragraph 5 it says, It could reveal secrets about the makeup of comets,”and in passage 2 paragraph 1 it says, And never has the chance of doing this been better than on the comet under Philaes robotic feet. This shows that the comet under Philae s robotic foot helped bring back information because it could bring back things and show things on the camera for scientists, so they can study it, above all it might be harder then before to bring information back because Philae is stuck in between something. Lastly, getting pictures from the spacecraft Rosetta helped them see the full comet. The text says in passage 2 paragraph 16, But Philae isn't the only science center studying the
