It sure is. I am very pleased at how that turned out! I was wondering if Europa's location would be warped due to Jupiter's atmosphere, a la the setting sun. But it turned out wonderful!

John, again, I want to thank you for the opportunity to contribute!

Great Pictures!
The movie with the knots following Adrastea was definitely my favorite.

Jason (or anybody else), can you identify which volcanic centers are glowing in the LEISA image they released? They only mentioned one by name in the catpion (Amirani/Maui).

Nice write up on the BBC News Site:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/6613717.stm

"Spacecraft returns Jupiter images"
By Paul Rincon
Science reporter, BBC News

"New Horizons came within a few million km of the gas giant
Nasa's New Horizons spacecraft has returned stunning views of the Jupiter system captured during a recent flyby. "

Cheers

Nice homage to the genius behind the image in that report:

"Texan Richard Hendricks proposed shooting the unearthly moonrise, and the space agency agreed."
