Coincidently (or not actually, it was quite intentional...), Jingpo Lacus means "Mirror Lake" Yeah -- intentional. At least something good out of not having had this lake named earlier. Gave us the chance to name it after the specular reflection discovery. - Jason |

I should hope so - with Randy Kirk et.al's data and Steve Wall's scientific guidance - I made it It was my first assignment on lab.

Let's just say the DTM was quite low res, and leave it at that

Beautiful, Doug!
Was it prepared primarily for outreach, or for the use of project scientists? Or both? TTT |

Oh, just for outreach, but it was great working with a scientist to get it as authentic as we thought we could from the data in hand.

Scientist are human too and I'm sure they stared at the fly over as much as I did. Very inspiring...specialy the "Bay view" near the end.
More of these please -------------------- |

New VIMS paper on specular reflection lightcurves courtesy of VIMS Jason: http://barnesos.net/publications/papers/20...cular.Waves.pdf This is actually the same one from post #166 above, only now in official format and out in the dead-tree version of the journal. Seems like a long lag, I know. And this came out pretty fast, for Icarus! - Jason |

Same science I guess, but some different authors, different text and different diagrams. I particularly like the new illustrations. Anyhow it's such a great subject I'm happy to read about it all over again. Thanks once more for making it available.
