Animating the three available close-up images for both Dinkinesh and Selam into a couple .gif's showing some amount of "rotation."

Thanks for the anaglyph; definitely seems like Bennu/Ryugu had gotten beat up. It's also more obvious that Selam is a contact binary, even from this angle. Much like the Rosetta images of 67P looked from 'above' the smaller lobe, with the bigger one peeking out.

Look out for some goodies on our Dinky asteroid at LPSC (abstracts to be released soon) - including something by John.

First part of our big deep space maneuver completed. The second, larger, part of the burn is scheduled for tomorrow.

And Phil may be disappointed by the LPSC abstracts- they are carefully written to avoid releasing substantial new information. We'll have much more to say at the conference itself.

Hopefully the pipeline for reporting the status of that bigger burn is only operable M-F 9-5 because it's early Monday and I'm curious. laugh.gif
