An exciting talk at the interface of Informatics and Physics by the Rosetta Software Coordinator (European Space Agency), Alessandro Ercolani.

Rosetta is a space mission of the European Space Agency – ESA. It was launched in 2004 and after 10 years of interplanetary travel reached the comet 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko and sent the lander Philae to its surface: the first time for humankind to touch down on a comet. Alessandro Ercolani was Rosetta Software Coordinator in the Mission Control Team at the time of the launch, and he’ll bring the audience through an exciting trip across our solar system with many pictures and animations, to tell the story of this fantastic exploration mission.
