Rosetta navigation camera (NavCam) image taken on 18 December 2015 at 99.9 km from the centre of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The image measures 8.7 km across and has a scale of about 8.5 m/pixel.
The image has been cleaned to remove the more obvious bad pixels and cosmic ray artefacts, and intensities have been scaled.
This image has been enhanced to bring out the details of the comet's activity. The original image is available here.
More images of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko can be found in the '67P - by Rosetta' collection.
