Description: Animation of Rosetta's trajectory around 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko from 1 August 2014 to 31 March 2015. Note that the sharp angles of the orbit are accurate and the result of the comet's low gravitational effect on the spacecraft, allowing Rosetta to use its thrusters to effect major course changes.
