Thread title amended as requested.
-------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

I can't stop rewatching that. It's just peacefully tumbling out there as NH flies by it.

This is really wonderful, especially since there were no actual "half-phase" images, (the lack of illumination combined with flyby speed made it impossible, I assume)?

Arrokoth Approach.
About 230 images of Arrokoth were aligned, stacked, deconvolved, resized and de-rotated to create this 'ping-pong' animation. The animation covers 13 hours of observations.

That is fascinating, Roman. Well done!

QUOTE (Alan Stern @ Jan 3 2021, 10:02 PM) Gorgeous work Roman! It is so good, I really enjoy Roman's work. Maybe is there a way of training a AI machine learning program to generate the other side of Arrokoth? |

We already know what the other side looks like, at least in terms of shape, from the observations of blocking starlight during the flyby.
