Open tools for the community

We generate a lot of data and code, and we want others to enjoy them too. Here's what's freely available — forever a work in progress.

Comet 67P
Interactive tool

Comet.Photos

Select any region on comet 67P's complex shape and view every OSIRIS NAC, WAC, and NAVCAM image Rosetta took of it. Set resolution and imaging-geometry preferences, then download your selection. Or stay in the browser and watch your region evolve! It now includes other small bodies too — Ryugu (Hayabusa2) and Bennu (OSIRIS-REx).

Built largely by Daniel Kurlander (then an MIT undergraduate), with guidance from Abhinav Jindal, Jason Soderblom, and Sam Birch.
