I updated the video to basically match the NASA EYES flyby map. https://youtu.be/ZyooFO8osVU I tried to align Bjorn's map with the beginning of the clip as well as I could. It tracked well up until closest approach and Bjorn's video has a different rotation than shown in EYES. I tried to get the rotation after closest approach to closely match that shown by eyes and the position of the Sun matches at the end. Also added an update to the map in the instrument view... I know all of this is going to be old news in two days, but hey, maybe someone is interested |

zamboni, W O W (and thanks to EYES...) Thanks, something isn't right with my overlay of his video. If I try to match the EYEs map with the updated Map of Bjorn's I need to rotate the video -65 degrees, and the sun position at the end is totally off. I need to investigate further |

Been lurking for a while...thought I might contribute. I have been playing around with the NASA Eyes app (http://eyes.jpl.nasa.gov/eyes-on-pluto.html), and I saw Bjorn's video of the approach, so I decided to try and combine the two. I'm not sure if it is quite accurate though. I cued things to the position of pluto and the Sun eclipse but the angles doesn't quite match. The data from the Eyes app may be not up to date (seeing they dont seem to have an accurate Pluto terrain map. I had to rotate Bjorn's video about 5 degrees. Here is the link if anyone is interested: https://youtu.be/u5PudsMAbfc |
