And yet another to come afterwards. Rosetta will flyby 21 Lutetia in July 2010. Lutetia will be the largest asteroid visited by spacecraft until Dawn reaches Vesta in 2011.

Of course, we will be seeing the first images from the Steins flyby shortly before NH reaches Pluto, followed by several unprocessed, raw snapshots of Lutetia around the time NH makes its other KBO encounter...
