This dataset contains color press release images related to the Magellan gravity experiment. Magellan started acquiring gravity data on September 14, 1992. The aerobraking manuever took place from May 24, 1993 to August 3, 1993, placing the Magellan spacecraft in a circular orbit. Higher quality global gravity was then measured from the circular orbit. The press release images contain both pre- and post- aerobraking data, and show global and regional gravity fields.
