Late night update: we‘be been working hard in the past two days on a time lapse movie of the latest #MercuryFlyby by our #Bepicolombo mission, & wrapped it tonight 🎥🎞️🎬
So look forward to that tomorrow, including a new way of visualising the data, all accompanied by some lovely music.

Close-up pictures from last night’s #MercuryFlyby of our ESA/JAXA #BepiColombo, the third in a sequence of six, are out now 🛰️📷
Fun day processing images & discussing geological features on the surface – annotated versions in the article below.
One key feature is the crater newly named for Jamaican artist, Edna Manley.
The ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission has made its third of six gravity assist flybys at Mercury, snapping images of a newly named impact crater as well as tectonic and volcanic curiosities as it adjusts its trajectory for entering Mercury orbit in 2025.
