4 days to go - ISS is prime once again through the closest approach with some images of the tiger-stripe region expected at 8m/pixel.
Initial flyby description and timeline available here (4.3Mb) I've found the mission blogging very detailed on the last two flybys - I presume they'll be doing this again. Can't wait!! |

Howdies, everyone!
Back again from the grave once more with a composite of the high-resolution imagery from both Revs eighty and ninety-one. The backdrop is a greyscale version of VP's orthographic mosaic from the August encounter.His mosaic of the four sharpest frames from the Halloween pass is incorporated as well for additional accuracy. I've excluded the two frames centered on the unnamed canyon to the north of Damascus Sulcus, and included the WAC frame from August that's misssing in Emily's map. Much thanks to both Emily and Jason for making this easy. Enjoy! PS: These have to be some of the best images in the history of planetary exploration...repeat kudos to the ISS team for another miracle.
