Neutron stars are just mostly neutrons. Like atomic nuclei, they also contain protons. (In their core, they could potentially even contain quarks or hyperons, although recent neutron star measurements make this a bit…
Note that Philae has already performed most of the experiments that were planned in the first two days it was operational and that all data from those experiments has been received. Philae never was a failure, that it…
No it's not. An RTG is simply not feasible for the short-lived, low-mass probe in question. Philae is 100kg total and will burn up in a few months when the comet comes near the sun, it would be a giant waste of…
