I found some additional information on the imaging experiment (JANUS) here:
http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EPS...PSC2013-506.pdf Not much new information on the camera itself though. The most interesting thing to me is that it has WAC imaging capabilities in addition to the 1.3° field of view and it's a framing camera. Reading between the lines it seems to me that the image size in pixels is ~2048x2048. This is not explicitly mentioned but the resolution numbers seem to imply something like this. However, there is considerable information on the planned imaging coverage. In particular, compared to Galileo the coverage of Europa looks impressive to me since there are only two close Europa flybys. |
