The latest HRSC upload (June '11) contain some pretty incredible dust storm images. I've put together a few colour animated gifs to see the movements of the storms and associated dust devils.

The gifs are all here (BTW Picassa doesn't seem to like them being animated so you might need to download them to see the movement).

This one is a particular favourite.

There is a little chromatic smearing as there was movement within the RGB images but I think the overall effect is pretty nice.

I'm putting together an explainer on how to get to the HRSC full-res data and process it into an animation, but I have a question: what's the best way to *browse* the HRSC data set when there is a new release? I've found a couple of browse interfaces but none of them have been updated since orbit number 5000something. The best I can find is the PDS Geosciences Node's Data Explorer, but it's not all that great for browsing.
