I finished my first good image of Uranus.
Planet is colorized from three filtered images (orange, green, blue). Slightly brownish color of rings is entirely artificial. -------------------- |

I don't know if the polar pentagon/hexagon is a real feature or not but it might be real (or not...). Interestingly, it's not clearly visible in versions of these images where I don't correct for the wind speed. I'm now working on the violet filtered images. They show the areas near the pole better than the orange images do but everything else is more visible in the orange images. One of the Voyager 2 wind speed measurements is actually from violet images: The Voyager 2 measurement closest to the pole, at ~71 degrees south.
So far no results on the polar cap from the violet images, I just started processing them. |
