The Halley Multicolour Camera (HMC) was the only remote sensing instrument on board the Giotto spacecraft. HMC operated successfully up to the moment when a power surge on the spacecraft impaired operations of several instruments. The very last image frame of HMC was transmitted from about 12 s before closest approach. The first image of comet Halley was taken by HMC on 9 March. The observations of the HMC have consolidated our perception of the nature of comets.
