Voyager 1 Saturn movies Options

I've been making some more movies -

Dione v0.60 - https://i.imgur.com/7ARNCEd.mp4 - need to adjust brightness on some.

I don't have the ability to center Saturn yet, so will make do with slideshows for now - some of the ring shots are really nice - https://i.imgur.com/1oLem3f.mp4

This doesn't compete with Cassini, of course, but for me, it captures the excitement of seeing these moons and images for the first time.

I'm aiming to have a semi-complete movie done by June 1, with j1 s1 u2 n2. Will finish Voyager 2 after that.

Then someday, will make a color movie of Saturn - there are plenty of pics for that.

That's fantastic, Owl! Dione was one of the wonderful sights of the Voyager 1 Saturn flyby, and those linear features were a mystery until Cassini. Seeing those individual frames brings back thoughts of the original smudgy color images.

The ring images are beautiful and shocked the world. This is a reminder that Voyager 1 only gave us a one-way look, so unlike the endless views from every angle that Cassini provided.

Thanks so much!

Thanks! I still haven't really delved into Cassini's images so don't know/remember what the full moon looks like.

Here's Iapetus - will need to do some cropping/zooming on this one - such an interesting moon, just a bit too far away from the camera...

There are about 15,000 images of Saturn and the rings from Voyager 1 alone, so picking out the 'best' ones is challenging in itself!

I have around 3 minutes of footage of this flyby - will post that to YouTube soon.
