Messenger in Mercury Orbit

So Messenger is in orbit around Mercury... Some exciting pictures on the way we hope!

We did our Mercury video for Sixty Symbols back in 2009.

It contains plenty of references to Messenger and even looks forward to the orbital insertion in 2011 (ie: now).

Why not re-cap on that video while we wait for the new images. Here are Amanda Bauer and Mike Merrifield speaking in 2009.
