Rosetta is
a robotic space probe built and launched by the European Space Agency to
perform a detailed study of comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko (67P) with both an
orbiter, and lander module Philae . Rosetta was
launched on 2 March 2004 at 7:17 GMT from
the Guiana Space Centre in French Guiana .
After an
improbable 10-year, 310-million-mile journey to become the first ever space
vehicle to make a soft landing on a comet, the Philae
probe may have ended its mission prematurely. Its batteries have run down, said
the European Space Agency. "Philae has fallen into 'idle mode' for a potentially long
silence. In this mode, all instruments and most systems on board are shut
down," ESA said. This might not change. Philae
was supposed to transmit data from Comet 67/P for nine months as it passed the
sun, running on solar power, but it did not get its place in the sunlight that
scientists had hoped for. The pictures sent back by Philae
appear to indicate it landed in some sort of shadow, possibly the shadow of a
cliff.
Shown here
is a chart drawn for Rosetta’s launch. Among the most important solar arc
progressions are those connected to the angles and the Sun. For the current
period the solar arc Ascendant is conjunct Neptune
which forms a quincunx aspect to Jupiter.
Jupiter-Neptune: Experiences of: feeling too passive, sensitive, disillusioned, overwhelmed,
hopeless or weak to do the things that
you/others think will make things better...having instances of "false hope" or seeing the
self-confidence undermined.
Admetus is
a TNP that relates to “blockages” as well as "rocky terrain" while Poseidon refers to “light”. Might
this be referring to weakness (Neptune )
because the batteries cannot be powered by sunlight (Poseidon) owing to a
blockage (Admetus)?
