In Science today: E-Type Asteroid (2867) Steins as Imaged by OSIRIS on Board Rosetta
-------------------- I'm one of the most durable and fervent advocates of space exploration, but my take is that we could do it robotically at far less cost and far greater quantity and quality of results.

Nope but if you're lucky someone who does have access to the article will write an informative blog entry on the paper before long

No, there is not a map. But a map was shown at DPS 2008 and will undoubtedly be included in the set of papers due to be published in Planetary and Space Science soon. I have the map but I don't think it would be OK to post it here.

Ant,
"Why not?" Here's a tip: before quizzing people like that, take a look at how long they've been a member of the forum and what their status is. If they've been here for quite a few years, and aren't a relative newcomer, the chances are that you can trust them - and don't have to ask for an explanation - when they say they can't do something. And you can trust me when I tell you that here on UMSF we are MASSIVELY priviliged to have access to many maps, colourisations, animations and other image products that are pretty much ONLY available here, so there's no point in bemoaning the lack of something. If it's out there at all, it'll be available eventually, that's how it works. -------------------- |

QUOTE (Antdoghalo @ Jan 11 2010, 12:52 AM) Why not? I'll also chime in that some of the products are still being actively researched and validated and are not yet ready for prime time. Generally a good rule is to "never e-mail or post something you wouldn't spray paint on a freeway overpass". Once an image or graphic is released, it is in the public domain. Some publications, like Nature and Science, won't even touch an article if the work has been previously presented. Even worse, there has been at least one instance where material presented in the UMSF forum was incorporated into an active research program without full acknowledgment (or even the author's knowledge). We are very fortunate to have both talented amateurs and active professionals that contribute to this forum. But that also implies that some of the information exchanged will need to be carefully limited as the research programs and artistic endeavors dictate. -Mike -------------------- Some higher resolution images available at my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31678681@N07/

It's really pretty simple: don't moan, because compared to how things used to be, we're all already spoiled absolutely rotten.

@Emily
I've checked the translation of the German word "Schutthalde" and the best translation for this word is "rubble tip". Unfortunately, the Google translator isn't that good when you try to translate German text into English.

Fortunately, there's a "Help improve this translation" button, too
