    Rosetta/OSIRIS image of asteroid Lutetia - from 2 million km

    Date: 09 Jul 2010
    Satellite: Rosetta
    Copyright: ) ESA 2010 MPS for OSIRIS Team MPS/UPD/LAM/IAA/RSSD/INTA/UPM/DASP/IDA

    This image of asteroid (21) Lutetia was taken on 9 July 2010 at about 03:00 CEST with the Narrow Angle Camera of the OSIRIS imaging system on the Rosetta spacecraft. The image was acquired as part of the optical navigation campaign, in which images acquired by the OSIRIS scientific imager and by Rosetta's on-board navigation cameras are being used to refine estimates of Lutetia's orbital trajectory.
