First Temple 1 Images Through

First image in the Temple 1 approach sequence.

The first Temple 1 images are through, however, due to a command glitch, it may take 6 hours to see closest approach images.

UPDATE: Images are now appearing at http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/stardust/ but it will be hours before the closest approach images appear. (the bottom image was taken one minute after the first, and it's the most recent download as I write).

Hi Ian,

Any more news on aurorae tonight?

I'm in regional Vic, north of Melbourne...wondering if they is some rare chance we'll get to see anything?
