Lutetia in 3D

This anaglyph 3D image of Lutetia can be viewed using stereoscopic glasses with red–green or red–blue filters. The two images making up this image were taken several minutes before Rosetta’s closest approach to the asteroid on 10 July 2010. The left-eye view was captured at 15:41:39 GMT from a distance of 4274 km from Lutetia’s surface and the right-eye view at 15:42:03 GMT from 4038 km (closest approach was at 15:45 GMT).

The ‘3D’ image was created from data available in ESA’s planetary science archive.
