Wake up, Rosetta!

Wake up, Rosetta!  Tomorrow morning, bright and early, the Rosetta spacecraft should wake up after hibernating for over two years.  Assuming it's in good shape, it should rendezvous with, and orbit the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.  You can read all about Rosetta here.  If it's unfamiliar to you, don't feel bad – it was launched almost ten years ago!
