Besides its scientific and operational successes, the Rosetta mission has captured the imagination of many people worldwide, stimulating them to produce art and music, and undertake other creative activities with friends and families. Many even made further education or career choices inspired by the mission.This video features a selection of contributions that were shared on the Rosetta Legacy tumblr in September 2016.

    what a gift we have been given
    by the vision of those who said "can we?"
    by the vision of those who said "we can"
    by the determination of those "who not only try but did" …

    in these closing months of the physical journey
    i have viewed wonderful images
    listened to wonderful music
    read words of inspiration

    as we watch the final descent tomorrow
    do not be sad be proud
    for this was a wonderful experience
    brought to us not by just the visionaries
    but by all those that have been involved
    and have taken only but a few of the many steps
    to be taken by future generations to come

    there is a story of rings and a fellowship
    this story too has it's fellowships
    those that took mankind to a comet have their fellowship
    and for those of us that followed this through the years
    many of us have formed our own fellowship
    and together we are the fellowship of mankind

    do not be sad and take heart and follow your own road
    and know there will be companions along the way …..

    ~ Roads Go Ever On ~

    Roads go ever ever on,
    Over rock and under tree,
    By caves where never sun has shone,
    By streams that never find the sea;
    Over snow by winter sown,
    And through the merry flowers of June,
    Over grass and over stone,
    And under mountains in the moon.

    Roads go ever ever on,
    Under cloud and under star.
    Yet feet that wandering have gone
    Turn at last to home afar.
    Eyes that fire and sword have seen,
    And horror in the halls of stone
    Look at last on meadows green,
    And trees and hills they long have known.

    The Road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
    Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way,
    Where many paths and errands meet.

    The Road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
    Pursuing it with weary feet,
    Until it joins some larger way,
    Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.

    The Road goes ever on and on
    Out from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the Road has gone.
    Let others follow, if they can!
    Let them a journey new begin.
    But I at last with weary feet
    Will turn towards the lighted inn,
    My evening-rest and sleep to meet.”

    ~ J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings ~

  2. Everyone involved in this mission should feel extremely proud of what they've achieved. It has been great not only from a scientific point of view, the way this mission has reached the hearts of so many people is also amazing. This is how science should be done 🙂 Congratulations and keep up the good work!!
