Four-image montage comprising images taken by Rosetta's navigation camera on 26 September from a distance of 26.3 km from Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The comet nucleus is about 4 km across.
The image shows the spectacular region of activity at the 'neck' of 67P/C-G. This is the product of ices sublimating and gases escaping from inside the comet, carrying streams of dust out into space.
