The Rosetta spacecraft made a close flyby (800 km) of asteroid (2867) Steins on September 5, 2008. The Rosetta orbiter spacecraft carried a microwave instrument named MIRO (Microwave Instrument for the Rosetta Orbiter) as well as 10 other scientific instruments and a comet lander payload. The MIRO instrument contains two continuum channels at 190 GHz (1.6 mm) and 562 GHz (0.5 mm) as well as a very high spectral resolution spectrometer (44 kHz) that operates near 560 GHz. This instrument was powered on for the close flyby, and signals were observed on both channels. We report in this paper the results obtained with the two continuum radiometers.
