[Moderator's note: This thread contains images from the Iapetus 2007-09-10 flyby and discussion of them. It was created by splitting this thread which contains pre-flyby discussion]
Another CL-UV3-GRN-IR1 set was posted today, though Iapetus seems to have been hiding from the green and IR filters...here's my best effort at making something from the CL and UV3 images. Lots of topography on the limb! --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Frosty, Sam, Yukon, Cornellis - doesn't sound french at all... Anxious about calling the whole crater triplet Snowman - or say better in french: bonhomme de neige... I think IAU will get in trouble creating names from 'The Song of Roland', simply because of a limited number of characters there! Nomenclatura in french seems to be one solution. I personally would prefer naming surface structures after their appearance, like the Snowman for instance. Bye. |
