A little piece of SENER on comet 67P
The Philae Lander separated from its mothership Rosetta probe, finally landed yesterday on comet 67P after two rebounds: “Philea is already doing science” European Space Agency (ESA) engineer Emmet Fletcher confirmed today.
SENER with its Barcelona offices located in the Barcelona Synchrotron Park, has contributed to this ambitious and successful European project: SENER has participated both in the probe’s platform and its payload. With regards to the platform, SENER supplied the active thermal control louvres, the boom for the instrument deployment and the optical screens for the cameras and the star trackers. In the payload, it contributed to the OSIRIS cameras as well as the GIADA electronics.
Congratulations to ESA and SENER!
