#PhotoOfTheDay: A Kilometer High Cliff on #Comet #Churyumov - #Gerasimenko

This kilometer high cliff occurs on the surface of a comet. It was discovered on the dark nucleus of Comet Churyumov - Gerasimenko (CG) by Rosetta, a robotic spacecraft launched by ESA, which orbited the comet from 2014 to 2016.

The ragged cliff, as featured here, was imaged by Rosetta early in its mission.
