Hello,
Anybody know off hand where I can find the raw non false colored nasa images taken of the Venus Clouds from past probes? I have seen some here and there on the internet but looking for the best original source that have not been tweaked or scaled or colored by others. thanks

Google took me right here.

http://www.astrosurf.com/nunes/explor/explor_pvenus.htm

But the ultimaste archive in the National Space Science Data Center is here:

http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/datasetDisp...o?id=PSPA-00346

Where you will learn that the data are archived as photographic negatives. The raw data are not available online, as far as I know. This was the world before the internet - or at least before universal access. As a very low science priority, it has never been put online.
