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. |

I did this a couple of years ago without the benefit of Phil's lovely book. It is a frame from the A14 descent movie showing an oblique view towards the western EVA traverse areas planned for A13. I think I have Star correct, and you can see from this angle why apparently it was so named, given its brightness. The white line beyong Doublet is the rim of Sunrise. |
