If everything went like it should, Philae should be on the comet at this moment, and the signal is arriving here at the speed of light. We will know in probably twenty minutes if everything went well. Watch the stream at the esa site.
Some insights:
“The cold gas thruster on top of the lander does not appear to be working so we will have to rely fully on the harpoons at touchdown,”says Stephan Ulamec, Philae Lander Manager at the DLR German Aerospace Center.
“There were various problems with the preparation activities overnight but we have decided to ‘go’. Rosetta is lined up for separation,” says Paolo Ferri, ESA’s head of mission operations.
