Thanks, Emily. Here's a composite of the released views to date of the Great Red Spot for comparisons:

QUOTE (Stu @ May 1 2007, 10:29 PM)  Some colour added just for fun, not saying it's accurate or nuttin' ... Great colorization, Stu! (I was thinking to make it) And this is my "little red spot" rough mosaic (can be improved):

I tried to merge the 3 complemetary views of Io volcanoes reported here:
On the illuminated side, colors are from MVIC picture and luminance from LORRI (sharpened). Obviously, I had to mask the overwhelming light from Tvashtar... -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

 ...wow! I'd buy posters of both your Io & Exploitcorporation's Red Spot montage...really beautiful work, you two, thanks!

New images targeted at Elara have shown up, the most recent being this one from March 3:
http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/soc/data/jupiter/l...0x630_sci_1.jpg John, can you tell us which of the tiny specks is Elara in that one? Looking back on previous pages, there are lots of new images targeted at Elara and Himalia. NH's closest approach to these outer satellites was on March 5th for Elara and the 7th for Himalia; these aren't in there yet, but they should show the moons as disks roughly 3 and 7 pixels across, though at about 90-degree phase angles there will likely be fewer sunlit pixels than that. --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Sorry, not sure of the answer to that one. Unless one object looks bigger than a point source on close inspection, it will take a check of the pointing data and the satellite ephemeris, and reference to a star chart, to figure it out.

More sweetness:

Yup, Ganymede gets its Kodak moment, though it's very hard to see its illuminated crescent- too faint! Jupiter and Ganymede have similar surface brightness at low phase angle, but Jupiter is forward-scattering and Ganymede is back-scattering- a nice illustration of their relative photometric properties.

Yeah, there is a companion sequence with Callisto, but because it doesn't conveniently transit the crescent like Ganymede, I can't find it.

What a day to be without my own computer and my image processing goodies !  (Stupid Photoshop CS3 appears to take a rocket scientist to install.)
