Don't miss the earlier pages for pia14312
through pia14316, though they're not as big.

Besides PIA14317, theree's a mosaic global map:

Go to the Multimedia page (link below):
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/dawn/multimedia/index.html
where are three new images listed:
http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/576355main_pia14322-full_full.jpg
and
http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/576355main_pia14323-full_full.jpg
and
http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/576355main_pia14324-full_full.jpg

Not listed there (nor anywhere yet that I can find
them listed) are these two additional images:

False color image of Vesta (to separate compositional
differences):
