Dilo, I'm almost positive APOD will feature at least the Philae image soon, give them a bit of time. As for NASA, why would they feature the images, ESA doesn't feature MRO images either?

Because NASA has three instruments on Rosetta.

Well then, when those instruments get some results out it's up to NASA's superior PR to pick up and feature the results. I still don't see why they'd have to feature OSIRIS or CIVA imagery.

FYI - I've found some info on the CIVA Mars sequences...

4CIVA-P Mars imaging is proposed to be done in the following conditions (refer to CIVA-ROLIS_LIOR_0260_01): - CIVA-P Heaters switching on 7 hours before t0 (01:54:49, Closest distance to Mars)

- CIVA-P Heaters switching off 3 hours before t0

- Back CIVA-P Heaters switching on 1 hour before t0

- 6 Mars (plus one solar panel) pictures taken with CIVA-P#1 (fix exposure time), one every 80 s, 4 pictures before t0, one at t0 and one after on the basis of the CNES simulations (see Regis presentation)

- 1 Phobos picture taken with CIVA-P#2 at t0+10 mn (fix exposure time)


And from elsewhere - the images we should expect in full, attached - we've seen image 1 so far.

Nope, don't work for APOD. It was easy enough to predict they'd feature an image like that. After all, it is an incredibly evocative image.

Maybe we should merge the two threads? 'cause that's where this thread is generally going...
