Voyager Mercury features     The default Mercury uses a texture underlay grid grd=1 showing a composite of imagery from Messenger (M1 - M3/Jan 2008 - Sept 2009) and from Mariner 10 (Mar 1974 - Mar 1975).

The texture underlay grids available under [Features:] of Voyager: Mercury are:

[Messenger (M1-M3) + Mariner 10]		grd = 1		Messenger M1-M3 and Mariner 10 flybys composite by the USGS
[Mariner 10]		grd = 2		Mariner 10 flyby shaded relief greytone composite image, from map USGS I-1149, 1979

The standard image overlays available under [Features:] for optional longitude and latitude marking or distance scale bars are explained Advanced Help: generic options.

Note: Any grd, gmt, geo, lbl, vel, mon, msc, or opt code might change in the future, so be sure to check here for the current values!
