This topic will consist of discussion of Juno operations post-JOI until end of mission, currently anticipated in Feb 2018.
-------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Although comprising only parts 1 and 5 of the approach movie, I thought, I should share these two preliminary AVI animations, simply because they subjectively look exciting to me, and kind of authentic.
One of the two versions (the smaller file) shows the approach sequence similar to the way the EDRs are encoded. This is similar to the scene as it would look like with naked eyes. In the second half features on Jupiter become visible, and satellites look faint. The other version shows all the noisy background by stretching the images in a logarithmic way without prior background subtraction. Together with the background and compression noise, the satellites are enhanced. But consider the file being large (almost 100 MB). The three lossless images at the end of the sequence look considerably different, since they show much less compression artifacts. I'm currently rendering parts 2 and 3. Since I'm rendering two versions, both with 10x15 degrees fov, and 120 pixels per degree, i.e. about 4-fold supersampled, it will likely take another day, before the movies will comprise the full approach sequence. |
