Brilliant video and great mission. Seriously there should be dozens of missions like this throughout the solar system, not just one or two here and there...I'll never understand why scientific exploration is shortchanged for money when it has given us so much. Anyway, now onto Ceres! :D
Wow, what I find amazing is that this lovely rock has been floating around for billions of years.... comletely untouched, unseen in detail by Earthlings until now. Can't wait for Ceres...
As I watched this I couldnt help but be amazed at the incredible awesomeness of life as we know it on earth...regardless of any philosophical or religious perspective.
Sehr schöne Animation zu Vesta. Endlich sieht man mal einen Gesamtüberblick über Vesta. Vielleicht sollte noch erklärt werden, wie die parallelen Rinnen entstanden sind und warum der Südpol so komisch ist. Ich habe nur auf der NASA-web ansatzweise es mitbekommen.
apparently s. elgner is a space type person at the german autospace centre - a graphics person I do believe and what an AWESOME tune he created to go with the footage :)
Nice video! This is an invitation to see an artist theory on the physics of light and time! This theory is based on just two postulates 1. Is that the quantum wave particle function Ψ or probability function represents the forward passage of time itself 2. Is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the w-function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event within our own ref-frame that we can interact with turning the possible into the actual!
Saturnalia Fossa on Vesta, Calpurnia crator etc are great Vestal names. The best thing about exploration is giving names to the new discoveries. New craters mountains and ridges await names. Can't wait for Ceres, i hope the names given to the new features of Ceres have an agricultural theme. Oat ridge, Wheat plains, Cornucopia crater etc. Ceres or Demeter was the ruler of cereals.
there's a few reason's why people don't do that. we do have a probe on a asteroid, but people need food, tools, communication (a comet has water, so we don't need to bring that) so it would be very hard to supply them. but if we are able to get a small space-farm, then we could do it until (not unless, until) something goes wrong.
I was thinking the same thing. The fact they're parallel and several on the same asteroid must be a clue, but what could cause them? A random close hit or a 'scrape by'?
Impact basin? What kind of impact? I got here from the Thunderbolts project presentation on this asteroid, I find their electric discharge impact explanation more compelling than the standard gravitational body impact.
Actually, there's a new theory saying the "big bang" might have been created when a hyper-massive black hole "ruptured" in a parallel universe and burst through on "our side". It was quite an interesting read actually. Sadly I don't have the URL to that article. :(
Those are troughs from the giant impacts at the south pole a few billion years ago; the shock of the impacts cause the terrain to deform. Vesta is too small to have ever hold had an atmosphere, let alone liquid water.
There is always one in every post.You just cant let it go.We have to put up with your biblical bombast every time.From now on why not just say something nice and leave it at that.
Saying we are tiny relative to the size of the universe is just as meaningless as saying we are enormous relative to the size atoms. Why do so many people love the idea of being tiny?
Why aren't exogeologists freaking out over what appears to be sedimentary layer strata that are raked round the circumference of this body? Otherwise, something causes large boulders to roll across the surface and then leave. But then these gouges would not be parallel to each other. Either Vesta was part of a planet or what? Did she graze Jupiter's atmosphere, thus blowing stuff off in the same direction? I'm not an expert. But what is the common wisdom on this?
Fantastic video! Wish I could integrate the pics of Vista into Starry Night software. And about the so called individuals, they are not religious but people who just cannot see the work of God. His processes set the universe to behave as it does. True science as we see here just works to understand those processes. Those folks are just not even close to what the bible shows. Please do not judge the bible based on a few souls who need help.
Without the planet 'Jupiter', our planet Earth would not do in time to create intelligent live. Why? Because without Jupiter's big mass, a big asteroid would strike out Earth every 100.000 years. The Jupiter creates us a bigger time-interval.
Absence of evidence is evidence of absence. There is not a single shred of empirical evidence for any gods, so therefore there is no reason to believe in any.
Seriously, one of the best vids from JPLnews, and that's saying a lot!
Nice work guys!
Thanks for a wonderful tour of Vesta!
Amazing. Thanks for the videos, JPL.
Next stop, Ceres!
Fantastic video and mission! Great work guys!
Amazing - Great Thanks JPL
Wonderful images, great work Dawn team!
Extraordinary video! Thanks.
Absolutely incredible! What a thrill to see so much detail. Thank you.
Fantastic piece of animation.
Great video. Very detailed and excellent presentation. What's the name of the background music?
Love this stuff.
outstanding. great job!

So beautiful and amazing....thank you for sharing this with us!

Wow. Awesome video.
Stunning! Thank you, JPL, for broadening our vision so much.
Another JPL Jem - thanks guys from one of your many UK admirers.

Thousand times my extraordinary favorite video!
loved it!!
Next stop, Ceres! I am amazed to be living in a time when we can see this.
Wow, I'd love to see that in IMAX!
Great video and music!
Breath taking :-) thank you for sharing this JPL :-)
Must excellent! Great music!
nice job on the music there, s elgner.

Belle vidéo
Please do the same with ceres . if the time and data is come. Great work DLR its an impressive animation .
Amazing music NASA!! :-D
Any idea on the material composition of Vesta? Planetary Resources might be interested to know.
Fascinating! I could watch that rock spin for hours :D
Saturnalia Fossa on Vesta, Calpurnia crator etc are great Vestal names.

New craters mountains and ridges await names.
Can't wait for Ceres, i hope the names given to the new features of Ceres have an agricultural theme.

This is so cool! :D
4 Vesta is extraordinary interesting and wonderful asteroid❤❤❤❤❤❤and valuable geologic treasure❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very stunning
Impact basin? What kind of impact? I got here from the Thunderbolts project presentation on this asteroid, I find their electric discharge impact explanation more compelling than the standard gravitational body impact.
Who composed the music for this video????
It might be a rock, but what a rock. Rock on Vesta, Ceres here we come.
Stunning.
the music made me watch it 3 times in a row
Congratulation JPL and Germany.

Are they real images/pictures or is it 3D (the asteroid)?
This is cool. Yet why not the real pictures? God bless xo
what caused the troughs?
What is the name of this music? Does anyone know it, please?
Where can I get this music?
Should put in a simulated rover the size of a car, or a simulate structure to simulate a building, so we have reference scales!
Cool rock, bro.
I'm so glad I live in an age where we can touch other worlds
Can you imagine this place with cities and enormous hollowed out caverns filled with low G plants and trees?
Humans can achieve so much and still be so cruel I wanna live on Vesta !!
hypnotic images...
holy shit how big is this thing?
Those are troughs from the giant impacts at the south pole a few billion years ago; the shock of the impacts cause the terrain to deform. Vesta is too small to have ever hold had an atmosphere, let alone liquid water.
This is a RIVETING age of exploration we live in. And by the way, I didn't mean to capitalize RIVETING, but I think it's better this way.
Fullscreen mode: Check.
Volume to max: Check.
Farewell Vesta.

Approximately 326 miles in diameter. Its orbit does not intersect that of Earth's as this asteroid travels between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
hah thanks. yeah it's quite crazy to see how big we are, considering atoms and stuff, but at the same stuff how tiny we are. the pale blue dot..
wonder if there is any dylithium crystals in there.
NovaSilisko sent me here, could this mean this is a new asteroid in KSP?
Amen.
Very framy, looks like is was rendered using a 486
Lots of Love 🌻🤲🏻✝️🕯🙏❤📖🙏❤
I think one of the new planets has a moon that looks much like an asteroid in 0.17 actually.
if you build a base on a asteroid or comet you could go all the way out past Pluto.
Rocks are Wonderful
Getting dizzy from the spinning...
What you are implying is that life is just a fantasy ruled by magic and that reality is just a deceptive illusion.
hope it never finds its way anywhere near us!
We once were tiny in our planet...
Fantastic video! Wish I could integrate the pics of Vista into Starry Night software.

How does a rock floating in space turn into an argument about your imaginary friend?
At last! NASA has found the home of the Clangers. And to think there were those who thought it was fiction!
Search for "The Clangers" on youtube
also consider I actually like the vid.
Well, you also live on one :D
The Clangers must have been hiding.
Greetings TaviYamato I too drink coffee and watch nasa videos. But I am not a cofee -human geek. No no no. I am a java junkie space nut!
On to CERES!
Is there anything coming from JPL that is NOT awesome ?!
Most*
i guess its full of gold!
your anger is making you seem unhinged, I'm not sure what good it does you.
Imagine what would be if it hits earth.

Just land on he rand power thruster up and she will be gone :)

I want to take a micrograv walk on that asteroid someday, first step: accumulate many billions of dollars.
