Voting for Perijove 06 started yesterday, and it will last for another almost 7 days.
This time, I'm not quite free of bias, since I'm interested in an extension of the polar time-lapse sequence, especially in a coverage of the north and south polar FFRs and the presumed edge of the respective polar haze disks. I think - well, I'm rather certain - that it's possible to infer short-time dynamics of the FFRs, and of the vortices near the edge of the haze disk. Due to the expected good contact to Earth during the PJ-6 pass we have a good chance to obtain overlapping images of these regions. More in the discussion section on the missionjuno site. Of course, there are other interesting targets, too; see Glenn's and John Rogers' (Philosophia-47) comments. A full latitude coverage would allow for a pole-to-pole animation. |

Here is the full sequence of Perijove 06 based on Gerald's animation.
Click thru for the video... Upscaled to 1080, Uptimed variably x6, Processed x12 I tried to correct the linear paths the camera took & there were missing frames toward the end when compared with Gerald's original video. Uptiming this has resulted in emphasizing the texture jump cuts which I have tried to disguise as best I could. I decided in favour of spending more time on the sharpest areas so I omitted a short area on the equatorial which warped badly when trying to find vector paths for displacing pixels. I might come back to this when I have more time. **update** Here is a version with Gerald's original timing & path fix... ...and a x2 retimed version... -------------------- |

... there were missing frames toward the end when compared with Gerald's original video... I think, the #124 sequence is missing. I've added this to the previous upload. Did you find any other gaps? The video should be 1:36.04 with 25fps, a total of 2401 frames. |

Thanks Gerald.
I started looking at the cylindrical maps you provided for PJ04 & wondered if you could produce them for PJ06? I am working to blend these separate maps into one with total perijove coverage. **update** If you have the time of course, I suspect this might not be the case! I think, the #124 sequence is missing. I've added this to the previous upload.
