Greetings-

Here's a little image processing challenge:

An ongoing HST/JWST campaign of Io observations to support Juno's Io observations (HST program 17470) recently obtained a nice series of WFC3 images of Io transiting Jupiter, close to the Great Red Spot. Images were taken in 9 filters from 250 to 547 nm, the mid-UV to the mid-visible (no red coverage), cycled 3 times. This should make a really nice color image, or series of images, with a little work (sharpening, ideally deconvolving the PSF in each filter; registration to account for Io's motion and Jupiter's rotation). Here's a reduced-size version of my quick-and-dirty attempt- I'm not posting the full size version as it's not fit for public distribution. Someone here can surely do better.

The data are public and can be obtained from the MAST archive, but for convenience I've posted the 27 geometrically-corrected original FITS images:
