I had nothing to do with the sizing of these four images, but yes, it is clearly way off.

I probably could have gathered that if I had put a little more thought into the whole thing. Fact checking is in short supply all around...

Oh God! I hate listening to my own voice, let alone watching myself appear on the BBC's flagship tech programme!
Yet here it is, ladies and gents: my appearance on Saturday's edition of 'Click', in which I discuss stumbling across new rings of Saturn, as well as providing a little insight into how I transform raw images of both Saturn and Pluto into (hopefully) eye-catching color composites. Fast forward to 9:12 for the segment in question .... http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b064cxb8/click-25072015 For US viewers, check out the BBC WORLD NEWS schedule: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldnews/programmes/...es/northamerica And yes: I did manage to squeeze in a reference to UMSF that *DID* make the cut -------------------- |

Nice work Ian! I take it my cheque is in the post.
Two great UMSF references with it being mentioned in the subsequent astronomy segment as well. -------------------- |

Aw, gee -- and I was just flipping through the on-screen program guide on my cable TV service looking for some actual news (it's getting to be a lost cause watching the American cable news networks if you want to see actual news) and I am afraid to say I passed by the BBC World News channel because it wasn't the news segment, it was the Click show.
I'll have to see if they're re-running it later. I rarely see anything about my real life (things like this forum) spilling out into the world everyone else sees. It's reassuring to see it happen.

I was watching the BBC short segment and I grabbed my mouse... except it was my cell phone, and it did not respond like my mouse should have ... this is the second time this has happened in few months ... does anybody else think their cell phone should behave like a mouse? or is this a future App waiting to be invented?

I wouldn't know; I'm still on a flip phone. It'll probably be pried from my cold dead hands too...

Congratulations to Thomas Appéré, Jan van Driel, Ian Regan, and Emily Lakdawalla for images published in the December Solstice issue (Volume 35, Number 4) of The Planetary Report. Nice images! (I hope I didn't miss any other UMSF folk in that issue - lots of images.)
