Before the T9 data came down, I got a little bored, and played around with some Voyager data of Ariel. The mosaic (oft produced) I generated is below. Again, this mosaic has been produced by a number of folks on the net, so this isn't really new, but I thought I would get this product out there anyway. I stretched the image such that only a few crater rims would have a DN=255 (other mosaics boost the contrast a bit too much, overexposing the ejecta around Melusine, for example. I also ran this image through a high pass filter, sharpening the image.

Very nice ted. I like the approach sequence, as it clearly shows the rotation of Ariel.

That is neat to see. I really like my last on though, because it shows the night side more clearly. Here is a slightly improved version (I reduced a frame border line).

Here is a color view of the night side. Of course, the night side is colorized, since there is no color data available, as are some areas near the terminator.

Very, very nice, Ted!
The stuff you manage to pull out of the old Voyager imagery more resembles Cassini-quality pics than poor-old-vidicon-tube Voyagers! -------------------- |
