| Description |
A NASA Hubble Space Telescope image of the asteroid Vesta, taken in May 1996 through a 673 nm red filter when the asteroid was 175 million kilometers from Earth. The asymmetry of the asteroid and "nub" and the south pole is suggestive that it suffered a large impact event. The image was digitally restored to yield an effective scale of six miles per pixel. |
