I updated my site with a page with images of the moons of Uranus and Neptune. I will develop individual pages with more imagery, including color stuff eventually.
Here is the link. Also, here is a link to the Proteus page, the only indivudual page that is already up. By the way, at the bottom of the index page, I have a new shot of Neptune and Triton from WFPC 1 from before the repair mission. -------------------- |

Calvin Hamilton's excellent SolarViews website has an "animation" of one of the plumes:
http://www.solarviews.com/raw/nep/geyser.mov http://www.solarviews.com/eng/triton.htm I don't think the plume is moving per se, but rather the angle of the photo is changing causing the plume to parallax (Is that a verb? ) over the surface. -------------------- Space Enthusiast Richard Hendricks

I've had that movie saved to show to my students for some time but never realised that it probably shows parallax changes rather than true movement. If that is so then perhaps a cross-eye stereo view is more appropriate than an animation. One of our computer boffins kindly produced this from two of the movie frames (with me nagging over his shoulder): Triton geyser stereo.jpg (Edit: doesn't work yet - but it will!) |
