Rosetta

• Politecnico di Milano had the scientific responsibility of the SD2 drill on Philae, the Rosetta lander. The team performed an extensive campaign to characterize the instrument and developed all the mission plans, integrated with those of the other instruments on-board Philae. The drill operated successfully during the First Science Sequence on comet 67/P.
• Politecnico di Milano had the responsibility of the model of the solar panels of Philae, the Rosetta lander. The team characterized the solar cells and solar panels and provided the hardware simulation tools to be integrated in the ground reference model of Philae.
