They're landing on comets, but yet they can't seem to find a way to make it back to the moon? :what:

Whats the point tho
We can learn about

1: the origins of the universe.
1.a We can study the isomerization of amino acids and see if we can derive why there might be certain configuration of biological molecules as opposed to other forms
1.b. comets have water/ice on them and its theorized most of the water on earth came from those comets

2. Possibly mining operations in the future. Theres a consortium of wealthy people who are trying to come up with ways of mining these comets and asteroids for precious materials http://www.space.com/15419-asteroid-mining-billionaires-private-spaceflight.html
