Summary

[edit]
Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description An image from this final run, when the satellite was only a few arcminutes from the planet, is shown below. The quality of the ESO 8-m telescopes, allowing such a faint target to be seen so close to a bright planet in a single image is an impressive feat.

Using this information, M. Holman and T. Grav were able to recover the satellite in an additional August 2002 image from CTIO.
