Playing around with contrast a bit and rearranging the images in the big composite...
One frame was flipped (mirror-image) left-right - the top one in the left column in this version. The second image in the sequence (one up from lower left corner) is approximately the same view as the last image, so these cover a full rotation. They are approximately north-up here. Images of course are courtesy ESA and the Rosetta and OSIRIS teams, and a big thanks to them for releasing them so soon. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
