HELLO Vesta!

Asteroid Vesta


Hey Space Placers!

What a picture! Dawn captured this view of Vesta after entering orbit. It is the most detailed photo ever taken of Vesta. This is just a preview of the photos to come as Dawn gets ever closer to Vesta. This pic was from about 9,900 miles away....at its' closest Dawn will only be 120 miles above the surface!
