Yet another old APOD without updating the info. This milestone was reached in 2019, not last month.
I would like the editors to consider updating their information, it can mislead less experienced readers.

Hello!
Isn't the information on this picture a little bit outdated? I think MESSENGER's mission ended in 2015 and is not currently in orbit around Mercury, and the first complete map of the surface was released a couple of years ago.
Right?
