BBC News report at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-33126885 Cheers, Alastair. Talk about serendipity. It has managed to sample and analyse samples from 3 landing sites , not just the intended one site. As long as the cliff/ crater rim does not collapse on it , then it will likely survive closest approach to the sun . That was not in the original plan as the electronics would have fried , out in the open
