Vesta was discovered on March 29, 1807 by astronomer Heinrich Wilhelm Olbers, and is named after the virgin goddess of home and hearth from Roman mythology. About twice the area of California, Vesta is the second largest object in the asteroid belt after the dwarf planet Ceres.

Photoclinometry-from-Motion (PhoMo) is a framework for autonomous image-based surface reconstruction and characterization of small celestial bodies. PhoMo integrates photoclinometry into a structure-from-motion (SfM) pipeline that leverages deep learning-based keypoint extraction and matching (i.e., RoMa) to enable simultaneous optimization of the spacecraft pose, landmark positions, Sun vectors, and surface normals and albedos.
