Does mission here refer to the spacecraft?
Context:
Space probes
The European Space Agency’s Rosetta spacecraft could become the first mission to land a probe on a comet. If all goes well, it will land on comet Churyumov–Gerasimenko in November. Mars will also be a busy place: India’s orbiter mission should arrive at the planet in September, about the same time as NASA’s MAVEN probe. And NASA’s Curiosity rover should finally make it to its mission goal, the slopes of the 5.5-kilometre-high Aeolis Mons, where it will look for evidence of water. Back on Earth, NASA hopes to launch an orbiter to monitor atmospheric carbon dioxide.Top answer
No, a mission refers to the journey, its plan and purpose.

No similar journey there? Hard to believe?
Such kind of journeys should be not be few. But to finally land on a comet will the very first in human history.
