Abstract

We report the interpretation of VIRTIS/ROSETTA spectra of comet 67P/CG, based on laboratory data collected on meteorites and series of analogs. We show that the crust is composed by a macromolecular carbonaceous material, mixed with minerals and likely more volatile molecules and possibly ammonium salts.
