Hello there.
I've got a question about the science data of the galileo probe mission (Plunge into jupiters atmosphere). Is it possible to download the complete dataset of the mission? If yes, where can I find those data? I've tried to find them with google, but I found nothing. Thx for help... (Sorry for my bad english. I don't use it so often, because I'm from germany ) -------------------- --- Under Construction ---

Did anyone put together an animation of the data from the Galileo Probe, like was done for Huygens' plunge into Saturn's atmosphere?

The Galileo Probe took no images, so it doesn't have any equivalent data. We have a time/depth/pressure profile, which probably makes a better graph than it does video.
It appears clear, in retrospect, that the GP hit a relatively dry, clear, cloudless patch in Jupiter's atmosphere. A camera might have seen nothing clear whatsoever once it had descended sufficiently. It could have been all blue and gray haze. |

Thank you, JRehling, for the note.
I know the Galileo Probe didn't take photos, so maybe a single (long!) graph may be enough. I haven't seen that so far, but yahoo searches don't find lots of stuff that's out there, perhaps it's in a technical paper. I had hoped there would be more data to display from the variety of instruments, but I'm guessing, with the slow bit rate, the data may be better as a graph than an animation. We had lots of fun with the Huygens movie - projected it on a three-story high wall in our drill floor for Aerospace Education at Civil Air Patrol! Thanks! bob |
