BepiColombo's second (of six) Mercury flybys to occur on June 23 on 9:44 UT.
The closest distance will be 200km, with some science data being recoded and images captured by the "selfie-cameras". Images are planned to be available on June 27.
Flyby description with all the above information, flyby animation, and more is available in the ESA article: BepiColombo lines up for second Mercury flyby

EDIT: Fixed a problem with the link. My thanks to MahFL for pointing it out to me.

Curiosity has made an almost imperceptible move on sol 3504 - the drive was unsuccessful.
This is the first move after an unspecified difficulty on sol 3496, an excuse for me to update the targets' list.

With a 45+ m drive on sol 3485 Curiosity just breezed past the 28km mark.

A short (less than 8m) uphill move on sol 3474. Tentative location for the "Sierra Maigualida" hill (it looks to me like a crouching stegossaurus).

Thank you Phil. I really appreciate it. However I, and I suspect I'm not alone, would rather have your posts...
I agree that JPL's map is useful, I consult it daily. And it reaches a much wider audience, I'm sure.

On sol 3467 Curiosity drove to the SE just under 12m and climbed another 2m (estimated from kymani76's contour map).
