This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft shows two overlapping impact craters on asteroid Vesta. The rims of the craters are both reasonably fresh but the larger crater must be older because the smaller crater cuts across the larger crater rim.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of the giant asteroid Vesta was obtained by NASA Dawn spacecraft in the evening Nov. 27 PST early morning Nov. 28, UTC, as it was spiraling down from its high altitude mapping orbit to low altitude mapping orbit.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft shows Aricia Tholus, a dark hill located in asteroid Vesta Marcia quadrangle. Tholus is a word used to describe a small dome-like mountain or hill. Aricia was the name of a city in ancient Italy.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft of asteroid Vesta Fabia crater, roughly 12 kilometers 7.5 miles in diameter with a large area of bright material originating from its top right rim and slumping towards its center.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft shows the sun illuminating the landscape of asteroid Vesta during a Vestan unrise; the sun had a low angle relative to Vesta surface, just as the sun has a low angle in the sky in the morning on Earth.
Ver en NASA ↗This full-frame view of asteroid Vesta was obtained by NASA Dawn spacecraft with its framing camera on July, 24 2011. This image was taken through the camera clear filter. The image has a resolution of about 485 meters per pixel.
Ver en NASA ↗This anaglpyh from NASA Dawn spacecraft shows Caparronia crater on asteroid Vesta. The 3-D effect of the anaglyph highlights the large ridge running across the base of Caparronia crater. You will need 3-D glasses to view this image.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Dawn spacecraft obtained these images of asteroid Vesta on Aug. 28 left and Sept. 9, 2011. These images of the south polar region were taken at a distance of 1,700 miles 2,740 kilometers with a resolution of about 260 and 130 meters per pixel.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft of asteroid Vesta shows Sossia crater, which is the crater partially surrounded by dark material. Sossia crater has a reasonably fresh rim and patches of dark material cropping out around part of this rim.
Ver en NASA ↗Comet C/2013 UQ4 Catalina first looked like an asteroid when NASA NEOWISE team first observed it on December 31, 2013. These exposures were taken that day, when the comet was at a distance of about 2.9 AU from the sun.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Dawn spacecraft obtained this image of the surface of asteroid Vesta with its framing camera on August 12, 2011. This image was taken through the framing camera clear filter. The image has a resolution of about 260 meters per pixel.
Ver en NASA ↗These two images compare topographic maps of the giant asteroid Vesta as discerned by NASA Hubble Space Telescope top and as seen by NASA Dawn spacecraft bottom. Hubble has been in an orbit around Earth, while Dawn orbited Vesta from 2011 to 2012.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Dawn spacecraft obtained this image of asteroid Vesta south polar scarp with its framing camera on August 12, 2011. The image was taken through the framing camera clear filter. The image has a resolution of about 260 meters per pixel.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft shows heavily cratered terrain in asteroid Vesta equatorial region. The craters have a wide range of sizes and many different forms, which include fresh, degraded and barely visible because they are so degraded.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Dawn spacecraft obtained this image of asteroid Vesta with its framing camera on Sept. 09, 2011. This image of the south polar region was taken at a distance of 864 miles 1,390 kilometers. The image has a resolution of about 130 meters per pixel.
Ver en NASA ↗In this diagram, the Vega system, which was already known to have a cooler outer belt of comets orange, is compared to our solar system with its asteroid and Kuiper belts. The ring of warm, rocky debris was detected using NASA Spitzer Space Telescope,
Ver en NASA ↗This image is from the last sequence of images NASA Dawn spacecraft obtained of the giant asteroid Vesta, looking down at Vesta north pole as it was departing. Dawn escaped from Vesta orbit on Sept. 4, 2012 PDT Sept. 5, 2012 CET.
Ver en NASA ↗This image, processed to show the true size of the giant asteroid Vesta, shows Vesta in front of a spectacular background of stars. It was obtained by the framing camera aboard NASA Dawn spacecraft on May 3, 2011, from a distance of about 750,000 miles.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from NASA Dawn spacecraft shows small rilles scars on asteroid Vesta surface, mostly concentrated in the right half image, presumably due to impacts throwing out boulders, which crash across the surface scouring the rilles as they go.
