Finally - I found an image of the Phoenix SSI with, I presume, two spare MER CCD's inside
http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2008/pdf/2156.pdf It's sprouted a big lump on top of the white cylinder MPF and MPL design, due, I presume, to the use of two CCDs instead of one. Doug |

Can someone explain to me why some of the SSI images taken through different filters don't have the same pointing? The difference doesn't seem to be reflected in the metadata info imbedded in the images either, so I'm finding it all but impossible to correct for it automatically in my processing software.

I wondered about the same thing, James. Could it be due to filter optical characteristics? I'm reminded of a very similar thing with Cassini's WAC, the RGB filters are consistently offset up to 3 pixels from each other's boresight.

Perhaps the wind is moving the SSI slightly in between images?
