TL;DR: The results of biological studies of a cryosampler flown with a balloon, in which air samples were collected at altitudes ranging from 20 to 41 km, well above the Tropopause over Hyderabad, are described in this paper.

TL;DR: The Giotto spacecraft was reactivated in February 1990 and performed the first-ever earth gravity-assisted maneuver on July 2, 1990 to be retargeted for Comet P/Grigg-Skjellerup as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rosetta Studies of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko: Prospects for Establishing Cometary Biology
TL;DR: A wide range of data emerging from the Rosetta Mission that all point indirectly to biological activity in Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko are discussed, including the detection of an overwhelming abundance of complex organic molecules at the surface by Philae and through IR imaging by theRosetta orbiter.
