|
Responsible Scientist: D. Möhlmann, DLR Institute of Space Simulation, Cologne Germany
 The design of the Lander's feet with integrated acoustic transmitters and receivers. |
In a collaboration between the DLR Institute of Spacesimulation, Cologne, and the Fraunhofer-Institute for Non-Destructive Testing, Saarbrücken, Germany, piezo-electric acoustic transmitters are beeing under development, which integrated into the feet allow to couple acoustic waves into the comet's surface.
