Not that I mean to compare Itokawa to a sausage, just to show you behind the scenes of making the map, along with the map itself, here, rather than continue to clog up the Hayabusa Return to Earth thread.
Here is the map itself, so far along as the pasting in of the mosaic has gone. And here is are two shots of the folded up map, compared with the computer-made model. Note the arrow to one of the "ears." The first try of the map failed to capture the ear, so I replotted the boundary, as seen in the Tracing image. All photos credit: Sara Adkins Studio |

Okay. Three-fourths of the way put together. Here is a montage of typical activities when assembling.
Far left: I'm using the Scotch tape method, little pieces. Left: applying tape. Right: adding seam slices at an "ear," the same one I had to fiddle with earlier, after the test fold-up. I'm optimistic the ear is going to go together alright. Far right: marking the tabs template with the extra ear seam slices. I'll update the tabs template after I get all through with the assembly. More later. photo credit: Sara Adkins Studio / C. Clark |
