Wrote code to process+stitch the raw EDR files from MRO HiRISE's imaging of 3I/ATLAS into a mosaic. It seems to mostly work using example data from Mars surface data but looks completely messed up when used on the 3I/ATLAS data. Guessing I'm not accounting for exposure time? Left: Mars Right: 3I

Seems odd that NASA has released only a 37 kilobyte jpeg photo of 3I/ATLAS from HiRISE instead of a raw image

I get why people are frustrated with Avi Loeb but I also get his position. If we don't look under every rock we can't complain about not finding aliens.

Wonder what's up with that HiRISE data. Would be nice to see it!

@astrowright.bsky.social Hmm. What are we thinking if the nucleus is indeed >5km in diameter? avi-loeb.medium.com/news-on-3i-a...
