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.

To be honest, I'm not really sure what you're trying to do here. IMHO, the small-disc Jupiter images are not great for assessing fine-scale distortions because they don't cover a large area of the field and there's not a straightforward error metric that you can minimize, like residuals in star images would have. Unfortunately we haven't taken RGB star images because of TDI limitations, but maybe we need to look into what we could do along those lines.
Be warned that spin axis knowledge may need to be refined post JOI and PRM burns because of s/c balance changes. There's also some evidence of nutation effects that I have yet to track down. Mods: I think that this whole discussion should be moved to the "Juno PDS data" subforum, and that subforum be renamed to better reflect a detailed technical discussion of Juno instrument specifics. -------------------- Disclaimer: This post is based on public information only.
