I really hope that they take advantage of Mimas flyby if it will cover regions not covered in the last flyby and is almost as close. The Tethys coverage looks spectacular!

Wow, that was released already?!?
That should provide some great views of Ithaca Chasma. I should note that the 150 m/pixel colored square near the center of the map, that covers portions of the center part of Ithaca Chasma, probably doesn't exist. The software we use to create these maps for some reason creates thinks our movement of the boresight to the center of the disk at the start or end of an observation is a frame, which in this case it isn't. I've learned how to get rid of those, so hopefully they won't show up in the T8 map. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim! I'm a geologist, not a physicist!

QUOTE (Decepticon @ Sep 20 2005, 11:37 PM) I have yet to unerstand why they release them So late in the first place. Maybe its a good sign. My understanding is that they release them, and then they have to filter through a bunch of beaurocratic press office type places before they appear. This technique (referring to the faux-super resolution technique I was speaking of in my earlier post - sorry - I switched gears without warning!) really does help with enlarging images. Here is a voyager image of Janus using the same methodology  While with a single image it doesn't actually improve resolution, it makes the resolved features look sharper and less pixelated. -------------------- |
