Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 March 2016
Extract
The major observational results of the detection of the nucleus of Comet Halley will be summarized with some emphasis on the images. A comparison to or context with ground based observations will be discussed. The paradigm set by the first observations of a cometary nucleus should be critically reviewed. The results of the VEGA missions and the recent observations of the nucleus of Comet Borrelly by DS-1 will also be considered.
