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.
Enjoy!

1986, I was 4. I don't know when exactly my interest in planets began, but by 4th grade, I knew more about the planets than the teacher did. I could recite the orbital times of all the planets, and the diameters of some. Most of that information came courtesy of Isaac Asimov's Library of the Universe books, which were thin but informative books made shorlty after Voyager 2's flyby of Neptune. One per planet and one for the Sun.
Still remember seeing The Grand Tour video, and cringing that it would be awhile until the 1997 launch of Cassini...and then the 7 year trip too. Just seemed like forever. |

Just seemed like forever.  By the 4th Grade I knew the names of all the moons of Jupiter (only 16 back then). Now, with 63, I've given up trying. My interest in present day planetary science (i.e. not just what I could find in books at the school library) started with Galileo orbit insertion. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim!
