QUOTE (SFJCody @ Jan 17 2005, 01:37 AM) OK, I relent, the NEAR images are in. Nahh - see - I dont think it should be. Yes - we've seen it from an altitude of what, 20 metres or something - BUT - most importantly - we havnt seen a view of the horizon from the surface. I think that's the important part. That Eros view could have been taken from 500km with a big enough camera. It's just another piece to stitch into a map. The moment you are on the surface and looking at the horizon - then, you are no longer looking at a map - you are looking at a PLACE Doug |
