We haven't heard much about Rosetta lately, but that doesn't mean nothing is happening. Here is a video update from ESA about Rosetta. We learn that the spacecraft has been doing some low flying and there are plans to get her even closer to the surface before the mission ends in a few months.

The water found on Comet C-G isn't like water on Earth. Other comets might have brought water to Earth, but not this type of comet. However scientists have found glycine, an amino acid one of the building blocks of life. Very interesting.
