Wow Gerald...just fantastic. I'm rolling up my sleeves...

Isn't that artifact a moon shadow? Looks like it!

*update*
You figured it out! smile.gif

BTW, note that image 114 ("Collision of colours"/"Sharp edge") was taken in lossless compression mode; several people had asked if images near PJ were being degraded by lossy compression. I'd be curious to hear if people thought it made a significant difference.

These colors seem... right. Familiar? nicely done.

I'm among these people, and this is why:

Both processed in a similar way, hipassed and stretched linearly.
Some scientifically interesting features are about the same size as the DCT artifacts.
But I'm aware of the limited storage. So, we need to make a decision between coverage and subtle detail.

@Gabriel: Wonderful!
And also Johann Guillon: I'm learning, that there is always space for improvements. With each round we are going to be a little better.

What this helped me realize is that the programs I use to generate moon location predictions do not include Amalthea. The big ~7 of Saturn and big 5 of Uranus are pretty standard, but the Jupiter ephemeris programs I use all include the Galileans and nothing else. But I found this one:

https://pds-rings.seti.org

And here is the simulated view during the last Juno encounter.

Amalthea is dead center. It's the culprit. Also, the smaller moons would not cover the Sun as seen from Jupiter, and therefore wouldn't generate an umbra, only a penumbra. Amalthea doesn't cover it completely, either. The day after the eclipse, someone asked me if there are any other cases of moons that just cover the Sun as seen from their planet, and there are some close candidates, Callisto being the closest, but none (known) so close as the Moon seen from Earth.

This also helped me realize that Thebe is pretty big – almost half the size of Amalthea. Metis and Adrastea are much smaller.

I try to make what I saw through my telescope. Maybe little bit more sharp and detailed smile.gif

Thank you !

Can't wait to watch whether we've got to see Io this time.


Yes, we got a nice peek at Io.

Thankee.

Here is a portrait of PJ08_124 using Gerald's source...



Upscaled to 36 Megapixel & processed.

Here is a processed detail from PJ08_110...

I don't know when we got conclusive evidence that we are seeing relief in the cloud shadows, but we definitely have by now. Little storm heads all over the place.

Great pictures everyone!

I can't be absolutely certain yet, but I think these are the features we are seeing in the Io image:

(strictly speaking we are seeing large albedo features around those paterae, not the paterae themselves)

Large changes in surface features might be detectable if this is compared with older images.
