A new Astronomy Picture of the Day features a 3D image of Comet 67P, also known as Churyumov-Gerasimenko, captured by the Rosetta spacecraft's OSIRIS camera. This image is exciting for sky-watchers because it provides a unique and immersive view of a comet's nucleus, allowing us to better understand the composition and structure of these celestial bodies. By viewing the image with red/blue glasses, astronomy enthusiasts can experience the comet's jagged and double-lobed nucleus in stunning detail.
