It appears that at least one of the harpoon anchors fired and is secure. From the angle of the rope(??), I’d assume that there is another functioning anchor on the opposite side of the lander....
The side where the little guy with the Discombobulator Gun & the push-broom helmet is hiding behind the camera.

NASA’s role now is make muslims feel good about themselves. We don’t do that “leading” thing anymore.

Do you notice on the lower right-hand edge there are several areas that seem to be blurred or obscured? What caused that, outgassing, or something else?

Funny guys. I was thinking along the same line but you beat me to it. Are we sure that aliens didn’t send this hurtling toward earth, and this was actually a comet-redirect, save-the-planet mission?
Seriously though in spite of what NASA and others say below, it looks pretty rocky to me.
from http://spaceplace.nasa.gov/comet-nucleus/en/
“A comet’s nucleus is like a dirty snowball made of ice. As the comet gets closer to the Sun, some of the ice starts to melt and boil off, along with particles of dust. “
