È peggio perdere una missione perché si è costretti a tuffarsi nei detriti spaziali, rischiando di venire colpiti, oppure perché una parte della navicella si è letteralmente congelata e tutti i suoi componenti si sono saldati a causa del freddo? Con Solar Orbiter non c'è stato bisogno di scegliere: la missione dell'agenzia spaziale europea che più si è avvicinata al Sole, le maggiori preoccupazioni le ha date, fin da subito, vicino alla Terra. Con i racconti di José-Luis Pellon e Andrea Accomazzo. Musiche: “Contagion”, Scott Buckley; “Sneaky Snooper”, instrumental brother
Doveva partire un anno prima, doveva raggiungere un'altra cometa. Comincia così la storia della sonda Rosetta, con un cambio destinazione che ne ha segnato la storia. È arrivata troppo vicina al Sole, ha rischiato di spegnersi definitivamente dietro Marte, e di non accelerare a sufficienza per raggiungere la cometa. Con i racconti di Paolo Ferri e Andrea Accomazzo. Musiche: "Contagion", Scott Buckley; "Sneaky Snooper", instrumental brother
Andrea è uno scienziato in carica presso l'Agenzia Spaziale Europea (ESA), e da un po' di tempo è impegnato in una missione particolare: studiare più a fondo il Sole.
Ospiti: Marcello Pelillo; Simone Arcagni; Alessandro Jacomini; Gianni Dominici; Andrea Accomazzo; Gennaro Nasti.

Rosetta, ESA's comet-chasing spacecraft, is due to swing-by Earth tomorrow, 13 November, making closest approach at 21:57 CET. The next three days promise to be intensely busy at ESOC, ESA's Space Operations Centre, in Darmstadt, Germany. On 12 November, ESApod spoke with Andrea Accomazzo, the Spacecraft Operations Manager, who provides an update on the team work going on at ESOC and the support being provided by ESA's New Norcia ESTRACK ground station and by NASA's deep-space network. At 19:00 CET (18:00 UTC) tonight, Rosetta will be 920 000 km from the Earth, approaching at 9.4 km/second relative to our planet.ESApod video programme
