Great. Let Philae have a bit of a yawn and stretch, then get busy beaming more pictures to us. Did they manage to right her previously?

Rosetta's mission will come to an end this Friday as it tries to land on the comet.
Well done, ESA!

A photo it took during its descent, one thing I noticed is the loose gravel and debris on the surface. What is keeping it from floating out into space? Does the comet have its own gravity or is it because of the speed of the comet that keeps it pinned to the surface.

All matter has gravity and this object would have attained stability out in deep space. Things will change when it meets the solar wind and stabilize when it is far enough away again.
