Thought this deserved a new thread- we can't talk about EVERY LRO target in the one thread
I made a mistake in this one - I didn't include the thruster plume guards. My MER/MPF simulation for HiRISE seemed to come out about right - so fingers crossed that this will be there or there abouts as well. Still in a comissioning phase, something of a slant angle - I'd expect approx 1.5m/pixel if it's at the 120km figure mentioned earlier. |

A bit more on Apollo 14:
The tracks from Station A to Station B are very clear, even the little loop they did at Station B around a little crater. Tracks from LM to A are visible too. I can't see the return tracks from Station G around North Triplet at all. (no crater doubling here - it's all in how you deal with the stripes!) Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

QUOTE (Phil Stooke) The tracks from Station A to Station B are very clear, even the little loop they did at Station B around a little crater. Tracks from LM to A are visible too. I can't see the return tracks from Station G around North Triplet at all. Amazing processing! It almost seems dead certain that all of the site images will have clear EVA trails when LRO is done. Rob, you've convinced me about the '11 seismometer. (I've gotta get back to work!) |
