As you might all know by now - I'm heading to ESOC for the media event that ties in with the flyby and so with a lot of help from Emily and the Rosetta Science Operations Centre at ESA - I've done a flyby chart...just the imaging instruments, but it's fairly usefull. Emily's got a vertical one in the works in the same style as her excellent New Horizons timeline.

03:00 - En route science, first images, Gerhard Schwehm, Head of Solar System Science Operations Division & Rosetta Mission Manager Doug I've just received an e-mail from Dr. Schwehm pointing out that the schedule you present (taken from here)is not updated: "I will briefly present the overall mission objective - Uwe Keller will show some of the first images from the approach to Mars, a panoramic view of Mars and hopefully images of Phobos. So we hope to get some of the results from the approach phase during the night." Don't miss it!
