Just let you all know about a new blog I've started called The Gish Bar Times located at http://gishbar.blogspot.com/ . I intend to use the blog to cover Io-related news like new papers or abstracts, developments with the flagship mission selection process, newly processed images, volcano news, or pretty photos taken of Io and Jupiter. I hope you all enjoy!

"cleaning" up missing data .. to clean or not to clean , that is the question...
in my opinion it depends on what one is going to do with the data for a scientific paper -- none .( or single missing lines ) or to impress the general public ( just look at the mer raw pan cam to the very nicely cleaned up and colorized - in a different thread ) data vs WOW factor "it can often looking...not right" it is very easy to do a bad inpainting job and there is the time VS quality factor, often it will take way more time that it is worth . |

Little hands on experiment today to show the colour of quenched sulfur vapour (it's the central tube, right in the middle of the pic that's key here); so this is carefully dried sulfur (which is wetter than you'd think when it comes out of the bottle) flash heated under vacuum onto a liquid nitrogen cooled finger. The red/orange colour will presumably be indicative of a mix of S3, S4 and others - and comparisons with the pictures of Io's surface posted above are interesting re the colour. Note also a blue/violet tinge higher up...maybe indicative of S2? Certainly it's supposed to be that colour in the gas phase...
Apologies for the poor focus, but it's taken through two layers of glass, the outermost of which was rather warm! |
