Re: First ever image of Mercury from orbit!

sheesh you got some good green. I read an article about how horrendously challenging it was to get the probe into Mercury's orbit (I think [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=1529"]36[/url] miles above the surface or so) because mercury is so close to the sun, the gravitational tug of the sun completely distorts most gravity fields near mercury. gotta hand it to the scientists.
