These images, taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft, are Europe’s highest-resolution pictures so far of the Martian moon Phobos. http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Mars_Express/SEM21TVJD1E_0.html |

I should have added to my previous post - it came from one of the abstracts at the ESA Mars Conference - see thread under Conferences. Willner et al., in the Friday Workshops.
Mapping - there has been no serious work since Viking. I've been saying for years that I'll make a new global mosaic with the best images, but other things have prevented me. But I will certainly do so when Phobos-Grunt flies, or if CSA's PRIME gets funded. The abstract above refers to a new global shape model, which will help improve the next round of mapping. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
