Can anyone explain the geometry to me? I was expecting a fly-by, but the image barely changes over 90 minutes.
This YouTube visualisation 5 days ago is not official AFAIK, but is more what I expected: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfwDFdunJCQ I'm sure 'twill be all right on the day - but I'm old enough to remember Giotto, when we expected pics on the night but waited weeks for the processing. |

Can anyone explain the geometry to me? I was expecting a fly-by, but the image barely changes over 90 minutes. All the LCROSS action was after closest approach ... closest approach to the Moon was around the time of the LRO orbit insertion. The camera feed started some 2 to 3 hours after c/a. So what we've seen is a departing movie from the Moon. I'm sure 'twill be all right on the day - but I'm old enough to remember Giotto, when we expected pics on the night but waited weeks for the processing. Me too. Still remember when suddenly no pics came back anymore ... -------------------- |
