The point on the ground beneath Rosetta at closest approach (2007-11-13 20:57:23 UTC), over the Antarctic Peninsula, computed from JPL Horizons' reconstructed trajectory (sub-observer point, geodetic; distance 11,677 km from Earth's centre). Acedo (2017) tabulates the same perigee's geocentric latitude.
