The raw data from MESSENGER's January 14, 2008 flyby of the planet Mercury are now online on NASA Planetary Data Service's website:
http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/data/messe...grmds_1001_new/ As such, I am proud to present a series of mosaics I have created using these raw images. These use the mosaic designs shown on the MESSENGER project's Mercury Flyby 1 Visualization Tool webpage. These mosaics were created in either Photoshop CS3 (using the Photomerge tool) or PTGui Pro (particularly for the two MASSIVE mosaics). Keep in mind that these mosaics are quite large in most cases, and it may be better just to right-click and save them to your hard drive to view them separately, rather than viewing them in your browser. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim!

Nice feature with the imagery that looks like an extension of the ongoing flyby animation tool.
It's good that it has things like the image center lat/lon as well as image number and range. I'd also be interested to find out some other details like the spacecraft sub-point lat/lon. A link to a full-sized version of the image would be really nice if that could be implemented. That's all I ask -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]
