I was just browsing, and here they are!
http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/view.php?id=183 Although still distant, they are already better than the Voayager 2 views from 1981. |

I noticed when looking at the CICLOPS Imaging Diary site that the most recent released images had the addresses:
http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/190_200_1.jpg (Battered Moon) http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/191_201_1.gif (Phoebe Rotation Movie) http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/191_202_1.jpg (Phoebe Rotation Movie - Still Image) http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/193_203_1.jpg (Crater Close-up on Phoebe) http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/196_206_1.jpg (Phoebe's Surprise) http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/197_207_1.jpg (The Face of Phoebe) And I tried a few other plausible addresses. When I looked, the following images were online: http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/194_204_1.jpg http://ciclops.lpl.arizona.edu/media/ir/2004/195_205_1.jpg |

QUOTE (azstrummer @ Jun 15 2004, 03:03 PM) So does Cassini have stereo imaging capability? Not in the same way as an MER - BUT - by taking images from two places, you can generate stereo imagery - i.e. before, and after closest approach to a moon. Analogy = instead of using two eye to make it - use one eye, and move your whole head. Doug |
