Default Re: Follow Rosetta’s final Earth boost

Animation from 11/12 November

This excellent animation was created by stitching together a series of images captured 11/12 November.
The animation covers about 30 minutes and consists of images taken every 3 minutes, with an exposure time of 2 minutes. Rosetta moves roughly from East to West (North is up). The background stars are tracked, therefore Rosetta is seen as a short 'streak' line.
