On 8 January, at 06:59 CET, Bepi, Mio and MTM got as close as 295 km to Mercury’s surface. This sixth flyby is the last time the #BepiColombo trio greet the planet together 👉 esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

Here's an image taken 5.5 hours before closest approach, when #bepicolombo was 44950 km from Mercury's southern hemisphere. The planet is at the bottom of the picture, below two of the spacecraft's booms.

Mercury in motion... One of the #BepiColombo selfie-cameras captured Mercury today as the spacecraft rushed by the planet at almost 3 km per second. 🛰️💨 This time-lapse of unprocessed images was captured during 10:26-11:18 UTC today (11:26-12:18 CET), between 53700 and 48000 km from the planet's surface. 📸

“This wonderful news means that we now have the missing ‘ground-truth’ information needed to put Philae’s three days of science into proper context, now that we know where that ground actually is!” – Matt Taylor (@esa Rosetta Project Scientist, 2016) #CometLandingRelived 44/

So happy to have seen @Philae2014 again before my mission ends later this month...more about my #CometLanding soon!

Welcome to our last day of #CometLandingRelived coverage. As @DLR_en Philae Lander Manager Stephan Ulamec said: “This has been a crazy week. Keep your fingers crossed for tonight.” Will the teams locate @philae2014? Will the lander complete its science goals before its battery runs out? Let’s find out… #CometLandingRelived 28/

I have a faint recollection of being in the project room with all these large pieces of paper with the images on, mosaicked together on the table, the team studying them for clues of Philae's whereabouts... #CometLandingRelived

“We hit the nominal landing site less than 100 metres from the predicted point” – Stephan Ulamec (@DLR_en Philae Lander Manager, 2014) “Flight dynamics – these guys are the heroes of this mission. This is unbelievable accuracy. We can show you where the first touchdown point was, but we have a hard time to find the lander [now].
