PHILAE HAS WOKEN UP AND CONTACTED EARTH!

BBC HAS MORE:

It worked for 60 hours before going to sleep when its solar-powered battery ran flat.

The comet has since moved nearer to the sun and Philae has enough power to work again, says the BBC’s science correspondent Jonathan Amos.

The Rosetta probe took 10 years to reach the comet, and the lander – about the size of a washing-machine – bounced at least a kilometre when it touched down.

Its exact location on the comet has since been a mystery.

A fine moment..
Looking forward to the discoveries made. If we are told the full story, of course.
