Caption: Figure 3.

The first four LUKE images, scaled to the same spacecraft range, showing the approach morphology and the large, rapidly expanding structures in the early ejecta. The top panels show the images with a log display, while the bottom panels have been enhanced by dividing out an azimuthally averaged radial profile to reveal the details in the dust cloud. The highlighted features, #1 and #2, have projected speeds of 340 and 240 m s−1, respectively.
