A recent image sent by Rosetta spacecraft shows the weird structure of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The image shows the diversity of surface structures on the nucleus of the comet. The photo was taken on August 7, 2014 when Rosetta was about 104 kilometers away from the nucleus of comet.

According to European Space Agency, the photo is different from people's expectations. Rosetta's image shows that the comet isn't in potato shape. Rosetta will help ESA to prepare for landing a probe on the nucleus of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The probe is planned to land in November.

The head of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko shows parallel linear features that look like cliffs. On the other side, neck of comet exhibits sprinkled rocks. The comet's body displays a multi-variable surface with rough and smooth valleys.

ESA said, "Peer over cliffs and onto the boulder-strewn 'neck' region, marvel at the layers in the exposed cliff face, and ponder the formation of the numerous crater-like depressions in this amazing 3D view of comet 67P/C-G".

Rosetta was launched on 2nd March, 2004 by the European Space Agency. After spending 957 days in hibernation, the robotic space probe was reactivated in January 2014. Rosetta was launched with a mission to study comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in unprecedented detail. Rosetta's lander will help the scientists to analyze the comet's composition by drilling into the surface.

Rosetta also sent data related to the comet. The data sent by Rosetta will help scientists decide the best place to land the probe in the months to come. Apart from that, the data will let them figure out the gravity and rotation of the comet67P/C-G to make sure Philae gets to the surface safely.

Rosetta's mission to comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko will offer the same view to people as the European Space Agency spacecraft itself.
