Hi,
as june begins, time to open this thread... cool.gif

As said before there will be another Iapetus campaign in the second half of this month - from 17th until 27th.
Unfortunately the minimum distance will only be around 1,3 mio. km, resolution about 8,1 pxl/km.

Also the short Celestia-animation again:
Attached File  Iapetus_june_2006.avi.html ( 373K ) Number of downloads: 817

Just remove *.html and run the avi-file preferably on a DIVX-player.

Bye.

Hi,
the first two june-shots of Iapetus are online.

Here an enlargement:
Attached Image

Date: 2006-06-05
Distance: 4.212.487 km (!)
Filters: CL1 and CL2

Remarkable the 2 giant impact bassins, one at the dark-bright border and the other one at the bottom - more difficult to see - in the dark area.

Bye.
