While NEAR Shoemaker orbits minor planet (433) Eros, the body appears too large for the camera’s ﬁeld

of view. This spectacular view – looking down on the north polar region – therefore was mosaicked from

six images taken February 29, 2000, from an altitude of about 200 kilometers. Features as small as 20 m

are visible. The crater at the top has a diameter of more than 5 km. (Courtesy NASA/JHU/APL)
