The Rosetta probe was never as close to Philae. Optimal conditions hoped for a revival of the robot, but the patience of the scientists was not rewarded. “I am less optimistic as and as time passes. We know that energy on board Philae will be increasingly weak, and from one point he n ‘ longer have the ability to turn on its transmitter, “ says Philippe Gaudon, project leader of the mission.
Brainwave dish for Philae, but researchers remain at his bedside. If the amount of energy on board the robot decreases, Rosetta probe that allows it to communicate, continues its rapprochement. Reason enough to maintain a last hope. Philae victim of cold or malfunction? Assumptions that are not discarded. Communication difficulties seem primarily related to its eventful landing. The mission still uncovered organic molecules probably the origin of life on Earth.
