For the record, since the Mariner-10 outbound mosaic on the photojournal is so small, I have worked for a while (off and on for nearly a year and there are still problems) on creating a large mosaic. Mariner-10 images are so damn hard to work with. Also, with the wild camera pointing, annoying holes show up. I used a low resolution color overlay. I have raced to make a presentable version, since in a few days no one will care.
I don't know that Messenger will solve the problem entirely - they still, for example, use the hideous over-exaggerated color views from the Voyager Saturn encounters even with Cassini data available. -------------------- |
