Looks like they forgot to link to full-res images. laugh.gif

I wonder if they took a RGB set of the night lights. Probably not, but it would be very cool to see the actual color of the lights as well as the crescent limb.

I think they learnt the lesson after the Mars flyby - From me wandering around ESOC going "Any Wifi? I want to blog for the enthusiasts!" to this brilliant inside story in near real time. Much credit to the guys in Darmstadt!

The blog idea is commendable, I was actually surprised when I first learned they were going to do it. I hope they continue this practice in the future as well.

EDIT: Higher resolution OSIRIS image versions are here. Guess what my next wallpaper is... wink.gif

Very cool images, but the feature they label as Bagdad (sic) is actually Tehran
