摘要
As a part of ESA's cornerstone mission "ROSETTA" to comet 46P/Wirtanen a 100 kg Lander will bring a scientific payload of almost 27 kg to the surface of the nucleus. After a first scientific sequence it will operate for a considerable fraction of the cometary orbit around the sun (between 3 AU and 2 AU). Ten experiments with a number of sub-experiments are foreseen; this paper presents the current status of the Lander development and reviews the scientific capabilities of each of the experiments at a time when the Flight Model (FM) of the Lander is already delivered.
