Has an incomplete image transmission ever been such an awesome proof of success?

Also the prior complete image shows such a lot of cool structures.

Reminds me a little of the loss of signal from Cassini as it burned up in Saturn's atmosphere as the final step in the Grand Finale https://youtu.be/B2XQLHDtkqw?t=3108 https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/missions/cassini/mission/grand-...

Oh that was a tearjerker. But Cassini had an incredible lifetime of doing so many great things, while DART says just “hello! ... YOLOooooo!”
