I don't know if anyone's posted this yet...but it's definitely worth a re-post.
I figured they would try something like this again. http://geekcounterpoint.net/files/category-10.html Just wait until they turn that bad boy towards Earth... [Edit: Image no longer available] -------------------- Mayor: Er, Master Betty, what is the Evil Council's plan?
Master Betty: Nyah. Haha. It is EVIL, it is so EVIL. It is a bad, bad plan, which will hurt many... people... who are good. I think it's great that it's so bad. -Kung Pow: Enter the Fist |

I can't wait to see this Jupiter picture, but in the meantime, some of the posts in this thread got me thinking about other possible targets. It looks to me like MRO could be in a position to take some nifty pictures of Ceres later this year (August-ish) at a resolution near 20 km/pixel. If I did the numbers right, this would be better than the Hubble pictures at the value of 30 km/pixel quoted in wikipedia.
Bart EDIT: D'oh! My bad! I was off by a factor of 10. Only 200 km/pixel. |
