Some Titan images from the Rev 164 TMC sequence of April 8 from 1.8M km. RGB composite fading to a CL1 CB3 image reveals details of the upper atmosphere and surface centered on the Belet region. Images rotated so N is up.

Interesting comparison. Yeah, a lot of the faint banding and swirls are lost due to compression artifacts introduced in these jpegs. I should point out that the April 23 observation actually had a pair of UV3 images because we had the data volume and time to do two time steps with that TMC, but for whatever reason, only one showed up on the JPL raw images page. Just something to look forward to in case we don't do a release about Titan hazes in the mean time before the PDS release.
