Rosetta's Valentine's Day flyby

I've been waiting and waiting to see pictures from the 6 km flyby of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko by Rosetta.  6 km is not very far, folks, especially in space.   A near-kiss, as it were.

The pictures are pretty amazing, as I expected they would be.

This is historical stuff.  Glad I'm here at this remarkable time in our history to see these things happening as they happen.
