One impact from Réunion to Chile
Watch the ground-based telescope sequence from Réunion, then compare a final spacecraft photograph with a month of Chilean follow-up imagery.
What to keep in mind
The telescope sequence is accelerated. The MUSE montage uses processed display colour and different observing dates; its unresolved point is not the scale of the spacecraft close-up.
Watch the impact response
Follow the brightening and expanding material while keeping the background stars in mind. Which changes are directly recorded, and which need the original sampling times?
Inspect the approaching view
Find the boundary of Dimorphos in the last frame containing the whole moonlet. How does this close view answer a different question from the distant telescope recording?
Compare dates and scales
Use the timestamps, Sun arrows and scale bars across the MUSE montage. Which structures evolve, and which long streaks belong to background stars?
