Scientific paper

The Dawn mission will have completed Survey orbit around 4 Vesta by the end of August 2011. We present a preliminary analysis of data acquired by the Visual and InfraRed Spectrometer (VIR) to map Vesta mineralogy. Thermal properties and mineralogical data are combined to provide constraints on Vesta's formation and thermal evolution, delivery of exogenic materials, space weathering processes, and origin of the howardite, eucrite, and diogenite (HED) meteorites.
