Congratulations to all involved in this project. (While not a homebuilt, the probe isn't exactly a production craft either.)
Europe makes space history as Philae probe lands on comet | Reuters
"Rosetta reached the comet, a roughly 3-by-5 km rock discovered in 1969, in August after a journey of 6.4 billion km that took 10 years, five months and four days - a mission that cost close to 1.4 billion euros ($1.8 billion)."
