Philae Science team meeting

Venezia, March 30, 31, April 1, 2009Palazzo Cavalli Franchetti

Philae Science team meeting Venezia, March 30, 31, April 1, 2009 Palazzo Cavalli Franchetti 1. Update all teams on overall status 2. Discuss science matters 3. Identify P/L issues of importance 4. Get prepared for upcoming events PC10 → final instrument uplaods / tests PC12 → CDMS finalized: run of a complete SDL sequence Hibernation → no more later major updates 5. Landing site selection process: actions within Philae / Rosetta Goal of the meeting

Philae Science team meeting Venezia, March 30, 31, April 1, 2009 Palazzo Cavalli Franchetti 1. Update all teams on overall status - Philae (system / PL levels) - Rosetta (Orbiter P/L) - Rosetta (system: regulator) → likely present assumption: no further use → the later the maneuver, the smaller the ΔV required → RV scenario to be frozen pre- hibernation (number of phases will only change robustness) → later RV ⇒ full Philae re-shuffling 3 AU → < 2.4 AU (end Jan 15) Goal of the meeting
