Here is a constant-scale natural boundary map of Ida that folds to a decent replica of the asteroid. Map edges are Ida's major ridges.[attachment=16299:Ida_MaxRidge_post.jpg]
[EDIT] Here it is again with the photomosaic properly credited; apologies to M. Nyrtsov for my oversight. |

Did anybody build it?!? Does it exist a pic of it completed? |

I tried with the aid of my son but result was very bad... perhaps, I need to print it on a larger scale (it was A5 size approx).

I've put it together twice -- I'll post a digital pic as soon as I can find a pal with a digital camera -- and the first one went together easier than the other. So it seems that where you start, and which sides you leave the tabs on, makes a difference in the result.
The bigger size definitely helps. I printed it on 11 x 17 (ledger-size) paper. |
