Scientific paper

The goal of Rosetta mission is to increase the human knowledge about the comet nucleus properties. The mission will consist, after a space flyby, in a landing on a comet nucleus, a collection of samples and a return to Earth with the samples stowed in a capsule performing a direct reentry. After recovery of the capsule, the samples will be analyzed in scientific laboratories. The history of the capsule thermal protection study is explained from original concepts to the new thermal protection concept. Tradeoffs and justifications are presented.
