Has anybody here been approved yet? I haven't.

[Phil Stooke]

I have! It took 24 hours. I've been in and looked at images on an image map and from lists of pictures in a lat-long box. The MOC camera gives 32 bit images and I'm still playing with an example. There is a nice PDF showing data coverage for various instruments.

Despite selecting responses from the registration dropdown menus for country, state, and city I receive the response that the selections are "not valid". Of course, I am not located in Europe or North America. Would-be registrants in those areas may have better luck.

I still haven't gotten access. I've tried logging in with the credentials I signed up with, and clicking on the "Login" button has no effect. I've tried registering with different credentials and after much waiting I get "ERROR in MOM Server!!Please Try Again!!" If anybody out there has managed to get access and is willing to share data and any available metadata with me, I'd appreciate it.

Well, rather bizarre... I did get in and successfully used map and text searches, just to check it out but without actually downloading anything except a browse image or two. But now I can't get in again.

I was able to log in with a friend's credentials and got a few documents out of the archive, but so far no data. The documents are attached.

Hey! I am suddenly able to get some data. I'm going to download as much as I can and try to host some of it. I am getting them one image at a time, so it's going to take a while to get the full set. For each image you download, you get the image in a 16-bit version and a 32-bit version, plus documentation and software, so each photo winds up being a 30-50MB download -- no wonder their servers are being hammered.

So here's the first MOM global image of Mars, taken September 28, 2014. No processing done to the image except levels adjustment to set the color of the south polar clouds to be white.

I've managed to download 150 other images so far, out of the 517 released to date.

Here is a browse page to about 40% of the data, all that I managed to download today. As I write this, the September and October 2014 .IMG files are still uploading, so they're not all in place yet. I'll try to get to the rest of it when I can. Enjoy.

Look what I found! (I need to do more work to match the Mars colors, I know.) Click to enlarge and animate. This is from 2014-10-07 03:03. It's Phobos, right?

It's going faster than Mar's rotation, so it probably is Phobos, good catch! I've already updated my desktop with one of the others global views.

There might be something up with the color profiles - they display fine in Photoshop and Microsoft Photos, but then I get some green color banding when I view them in Chrome. Any ideas?

Great work everybody!
