Eros Asteroid Movie Closeup

 
 
This is an actual animated view of asteroid Eros as seen up close by NEAR, the Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous spacecraft. In the future we should be able to see movies like this in stereo almost live. The time delay wouldn't really be apparent to a viewer on Earth: it would just appear to be streaming back from outer space.
