I'm just pleased that we get regular updates on the mission.
The possible post-main mission rendezvous with Pallas hasn't been mentioned for a while, but IIRC the mechanics of setting it up are difficult due to Pallas' orbit being appreciably out of ecliptic. Maybe the mission planners are going to present the relevant trajectories as a fait accompli when they're lobbying for that mission extension... |
