Really exciting to see the pictures. I helped write code for a paper predicting the size of Dinkinesh a few weeks before the flyby. It's so small we had to overlay multiple images in order to even see it in IR. We did not expect a binary!<p><a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.13158.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.13158.pdf</a>
Fascinating discovery. Space reporting like this never fails to light up my imagination. I wonder what it would be like to hang out on the surface of the parent asteroid and watch as the relatively small moon floats by overhead - so close that you could probably jump from one to the other.
