EDIT: Moved these posts from the Feb 14 HiRISE Release thread to here to collect all Beagle 2 search related stuff in one place.
I'm downloading them now too -- guess I can't blog about them until I've examined them very carefully! For a bit of history on the search, Here's a blog entry I wrote about this spot a while ago Here's the MOC team's take on that spot And here's the BBC page with the Beagle 2 team's take on it EDIT: and here's my updated blog entry with links to the Beagle 2 landing ellipse images split up into 40-MB chunks. --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

There are two HiRISE images labeled as being Beagle 2 related sites. One of them, 2347_1915, clearly crosses the ellipse, and includes the dark crater imaged by MOC. The other one, 2136_1920, is centered 0.1 degree of latitude north and 0.2 degrees of longitude east, or about 6 and 12 plus or minus 3 kilometers north and east, of the first one. I am having a hard time locating this on the best MOC context image I can find. Is it out of the ellipse drawn by the MOC team?
Here is the MOC ellipse at 30 m/pixel: Here is 2347_1915 at 30 m/pixel: And here is 2136_1920 at 30 m/pixel: --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.
