Europe's comet lander Philae has been found.
The little robot is visible in new images downloaded from the Rosetta probe in orbit around the icy dirt-ball comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, say European Space Agency (Esa) officials.
Philae was dropped on to the comet by the space-craft Rosetta in 2014 but fell silent 60 hours later when its battery ran flat.
Although it relayed pictures and data about its location to Earth, the lander's actual resting place was a mystery.
It was assumed Philae had bounced into a dark ditch on touchdown - an analysis now borne out by the latest pictures, which were acquired from a distance of 2.7km from the duck-shaped icy body.
