It's time to open a perijove-4 thread.
Voting is open for another two days. So, don't hesitate too long. Besides the discussion and the POIs on the mission page, you might consider John Roger's detailed discussion of several interesting features. If everything goes well, all instruments will be switched on. |

Mike, your 'mediocre' camera is beyond the wildest dreams of achievement of any random hundred thousand anonymous nay-sayers combined, plus their mommies. We UMSFers value your work tremendously. Ditto. Despite the people complaining over at the subreddit, I'm sure they're a vocal minority and the rest of us are also appreciative of the work you guys do. |

Despite the people complaining over at the subreddit, I'm sure they're a vocal minority... My suspicion is that people just look at the basically-raw images on missionjuno and compare them to the best, most heavily-processed press releases from Voyager or Galileo. And they also likely can't tell what the scale of any particular image is -- all Junocam images are limb-to-limb, even the highest-resolution ones, and the maximum resolution is only achieved at the center of the image. If I had the time I would process some high-res Voyager images and compare them to the Junocam images -- in most places Jupiter is pretty bland at the km scale. -------------------- Disclaimer: This post is based on public information only.
