Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko has 19 very distinct regions. They've been named to continue the ancient Egyptian theme of the Rosetta mission. Grouped according to the type of terrain, 5ive basic categories of terrain type have been determined: dust-covered (Ma’at, Ash and Babi); brittle materials with pits and circular structures (Seth); large-scale depressions (Hatmehit, Nut and Aten); smooth terrains (Hapi, Imhotep and Anubis), and exposed, more consolidated (‘rock-like’) surfaces (Maftet, Bastet, Serqet, Hathor, Anuket, Khepry, Aker, Atum and Apis). How the ancient Egyptians would have bristled with pride!
