Ted's right - there's not much that can be done with these images, but Cassini did capture a couple of views of Calypso from slightly different angles.

Yes, but wait a few days before any major downloading - I am re-processing
some of the sequences after not being satisfied with my first pass on these
(the raw TIFF's require significant adjustment for presentation).

Thanks.

In addition, here is a post that Kipp Teague made to the Project Apollo Yahoo Group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ProjectApollo/) on the 12th of July, 2004:

Please visit http://www.apolloarchive.com/apollo_gallery.html where you
will now find online the entire film magazine shot during the Apollo 11
EVA, and with all images newly scanned by Johnson Space Center from the
original long roll film. The new versions of these historic photographs
offer a tremendous improvement over earlier versions. It's no exaggeration
to say that you can now see the Apollo 11 EVA as you have never seen
it. More information about this project is on the introductory page of the
site in the lower frame.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the link...I am seaching for the exact source of the scan....was it the first generation copy like Light used, or did they for the first time thaw out the negatives...I can't find anything with regard to this.  Did you find any discussion on the site or elsewhere?  I can't find it.

Ted,

I'm certain that the original magazines were thawed out, scanned, and then returned to cold storage. From the Apollo Archive Update History:

July 2004 - 177 images added to Apollo Image Gallery, including all 127 images from Apollo 11 film magazine "S" (the EVA), newly digitally scanned by Johnson Space Center directly from the original film roll

Another idea I had related to the moon had to do with the Apollo negatives.  Not even Michael Light had access the originals - they are cryogenically frozen to prevent them from aging.  I believe the time has come to get them out and scan them at resolution so high and and a depth so great that you have the closest thing possible to a perfect digital reproduction of them.

Ted,

Scans of several original Apollo film magazines can be found at www.apolloarchive.com. "A11-40" was the first magazine to be scanned in 2004, coinciding with the 35th anniversary of Neil's first step. This roll covers the entire Apollo 11 EVA.

Since then, many other Apollo magazines have been digitally scanned by Johnson Space Center and sent to Kipp Teague in TIFF format. After extensive processing and conversion to the JPEG format, he makes the images available to download from his website.

Ian.

Slightly OT, here's a polar projection of a pan of Plymouth Hoe that I took earlier this summer. I followed Phil's instructions and used the Polar Coordinates feature in PSP 8.

Excellent work Ted! I reckon JPL should give you early access to the PDS images, especially if you can come up with results like this. biggrin.gif

Another super-res view of Mimas from eariler in the mission. Not the smoothest effort, I know, but it's quite an unusual and interesting view of Herschel.

Here's a super-res view of Herschel, from a combination of six Cassini images.

I have collected together the best images of the D-ring that I’ve been able to find, and labelled (where possible) the positions of the ringlets that Rob mentioned in his initial post to this thread:

- D68 ringlet (Red circle)
- D72 (Green circle)
- D73 (Blue circle)

I have omitted the D72 (Green circle) in some of the Cassini images, as according to Rob it seems to have either disappeared, or merged with another ringlet.

Two of the other Cassini images are absolutely puzzling and I cannot fathom them out. If anyone can help me identify what exactly is shown in the pictures labelled 'Cassini Puzzle', then I would be most appreciative.

Thanks,

Ian.

Hi Rob,

What's the best way to get a copy of this paper on the D-ring? Is there an internet source where it can be located?

Speaking of the faint Saturnian rings, this is probably one of the best images of the G-ring ever taken:
