  1. Simple comment. Rosetta in space for around ten years. Turned off for what..2-3 years. That leaves around 7 years active. How many photos have you seen that Rosetta has taken in those seven years. Maybe ten? Twenty? Lots of animation to look at, and some real Mars pics,  some far off Jupiter stuff, and previous close comet shots…But where's the rest of the pics?  Shouldn't there be a few thousand at least?
