These two pictures are from 10 - 20 (25) m above the surface, before the first landing of MASCOT

The small asteroid lander, MASCOT, that was developed in Germany and France, was successfully separated from the Hayabusa2 spacecraft on October 3 and delivered safely to the surface of Ryugu. After landing, MASCOT acquired scientific data on the asteroid surface, which was transmitted to the MASCOT team via the spacecraft. Scientific analysis of this data is expected to be performed by the MASCOT team from now onwards. From the Hayabusa2 spacecraft, we attempted to capture the separated MASCOT using the three optical navigation cameras (ONC-T, ONC-W1, ONC-W2). When the image data was received from the spacecraft, we could confirm that MASCOT appears in images photographed with the ONC-W1 and ONC-W2. |

That first image is almost unreal, Yoichi, thanks for finding it for us non-Japanese speakers! Wow!

Was able to extract some 3D data from the three images from Hayabusa during MASCOT's decent

Thanks for the link, that's useful. I'm gonna go ahead and add JAXA and CNES in as well...

Still no information on scale, so it is hard to know what we are looking at. What I am interested in is the first picture, showing the DLR control room. A woman is in the left foreground looking at the projected information on the wall. In the left part of that information is an image of some rocky terrain that does not seem to be among the other pictures they have released.

There's a much higher quality image of the "hopping location #2" pic from MASCOT on the DLR website. It's embedded into a margin smaller than the image, which shrinks it a bit, but if you open the image itself, you can see a lot more detail.

I see on the MASCOT pictures that one side is not focused..somewhat blurry ...is there any reason for this ?
My guess is, that it is not dejustet but if you land upright you have the nearer objects better in focus than the more far away and you not need a focusable lens assembly which adds some risk to the lander. Or is it really out of focus ? Rob |
