Divided into two parts, the first four chapters of Comets and their
Origin refer to comets and their formation in general, describing
cometary missions, comet remote observations, astrochemistry,
artificial comets, and the chirality phenomenon. The second part
covers the cometary ROSETTA mission, its launch, journey,
scientific objectives, and instrumentations, as well as the landing
scenario on a cometary nucleus. Along the way, the author presents
general questions concerning the origin of terrestrial water and
the molecular beginnings of life on Earth, as well as how the
instruments used on a space mission like ROSETTA can help answer
them. The text concludes with a chapter on what scientists expect
from the ROSETTA mission and how its data will influence our life
on Earth. As a result, the author elucidates highly topical and
fascinating knowledge to scientists and students of various
scientific backgrounds, allowing them to work with ROSETTA's data.
