I've been processing some of the high resolution Galileo Ganymede images recently. As far as I know the two mosaics below have not appeared at the official websites (at least not in this form) so in a sense they are 'new'.
The first one was obtained during the G1 flyby in 1996. It covers a part of Memphis Facula which is centered at roughly 15°N, 132°W. The images were obtained at a distance of approximately 5000 km from Ganymede's center. The second one was obtained during the G28 flyby in May 2000. It is centered near 14.5°S, 319.7°W. The images making up the mosaic were obtained at a distance of roughly 4500 km from Ganymede's center. I will probably post more Ganymede mosaics later this month or next month. |

These stories are adorable...my four-year old says that I play with moons and make puzzles with them, but no names are known to him but Saturn's. Kudos to Ted for a magnificent montage and Bjorn for assembling some of the fugliest images in planetary exploration history into something vaguely comprehensible.

Ganymede could never be fugly! ![]() This shows the context for the light-dark boundary observation. These images, and others that overcompressed, actually look pretty good as soon as they are resampled by reprojection. By the way, every other frame contains a central "truth window"--a 96x96 pixel area where there is no compression at all. |
