How big is this comet? Does it have its own gravitational field? What’s going to hold the lander in place once it touches down?

Its got very low gravity but the lander has a harpoon to anchor itself when it touches down.

Of course the comet has a gravitational field. We would need to know its mass to calculate the strength of the field.
