Was this one image taken from the surface the ONLY one taken? I thought the
probe could do a 360 degree pan.
Once on the surface it was unable to pan. The imagers are fixed in place
on the craft. On descent it panned because the whole craft slowly spun.
Software timed and predicted the spin and grabbed images as the view
changed.
