In the last issue of the Journal [(118(1), 6-9 (2008)] we reviewed recent BAA observations of Mercury. NASA's Messenger spacecraft encountered the planet on Jan 14, approaching to just 200km at the closest point. As can be seen from Figure 2, it imaged part of the hemisphere that Mariner 10 did not view during any of its three encounters of 1974-'75. Messenger returned a number of excellent images, and in this short note we illustrate some examples.
