This seems like the relevant place to post this (could be wrong): Water plumes from Europa? Apologies if it's already been up. The link to the Science article at the bottom doesn't work for me, does anyone have a working link to the original? Cheers.

Hot from Twitter:
" Emily Lakdawalla Retweeted Tanya Harrison @tanyaofmars · 26m26 minutes ago Britney Schmidt notes that the idea of plumes from #Europa was proposed during Galileo, but none found at the time. (1/2)" Actually the first suggestion was based on a Voyager image of Europa - not widely believed at the time, but it was suggested. ---------------- Title: Active Venting of Europa?: Analysis of a Transient Bright Surface Feature Authors: Helfenstein, S.-P. & Cook, A. F. Journal: LUNAR AND PLANETARY SCIENCE XV, P. 354-355. Abstract. Phil (Hi Tanya!) -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

F. Journal: LUNAR AND PLANETARY SCIENCE XV, P. 354-355. Abstract. That's really interesting - from the paper here (from 1984) - http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1984LPI....15..354H - they talk about the Voyager 2 image 20767.37 - I can sort of make out a diffuse plume, but not a bright spot - do I have the right image? If so, needs enhancing! (this is the crummy jpeg preview version, and North is downwards) From http://pds-rings-tools.seti.org/opus/#/pla...2_ISS_2076737_N |
