Thought this deserved a new thread- we can't talk about EVERY LRO target in the one thread smile.gif

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.

Some very interesting stuff on this forum's LRO thread. Can't read French but the analysis of the LRO pics is fascinating...

This is easy French actually. Putting the mouse on the world you are looking for translation is enough. I can help with Rocher=Rock and Ombre=Shadow the rest in the pictures is evident.
I agree it's fascinating...and link has been already posted here (post#79 by lightning)
