Date: 2009-09-06 Distance: 2.228.548 km Filters: CL1 and CL2
Date: 2009-09-08 Distance: 3.215.284 km Filters: P120 and GRN
Date: 2009-09-08 Distance: 3.216.610 km Filters: P60 and GRN
Date: 2009-09-09 Distance: 3.390.271km Filters: P60 and GRN
Date: 2009-09-09 Distance: 3.427.313 km Filters: P120 and GRN Maybe somebody is able to combine some of those images to show more details. Bye. |

Nice views that you put together CAP-Team. One thing I'm working on is to try and soften the image edge on the map near the terminator in the vicinity of the central meridian in these views. One minor suggestion on the presentation would be to consider rotating the Celestia views (with certain keyboard controls) to match the orientation more closely.
It's interesting to backtrack to what we were looking at with the July 2007 imagery (Harkeppler in post #138) from a similar vantage point. For example the dark escarpment on the eastern rim of the western Claude basin was visible in those images. -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]
