Yep, and they did it without bouncing off the surface 3 times.

 

Sky at Night will do a special on it, this Sunday.   My worry is that we still have to wait until October for it to get to the real science mission when it pushes nearer to a 14 day orbit and given the environment, those instruments have to survive much aggression until then and further of course, as they are not expected to last longer than several months.
