Rev 210 http://www.ciclops.org/view/7959/Rev210?js=1 is in progress. Cloud monitoring images are now being done and one photo from Nov 26th is presented along with Celestia http://www.shatters.net/celestia/download.html grid and Solar System Simulation (SSS) http://space.jpl.nasa.gov/ images. These suffer from no details of the northern latitudes of Titan (above 50 degree N-latitude or so) and so the N polar seas such as Punga (P) are not shown. It could be I am not using the most recent versions of these otherwise great programs. The equatorial regions of Titan are well detailed however and one can use Celestia and SSS to identify the location of structures such as the Minerva (M) and Ksa (K) craters.

The T107 Titan flyby is less than 24 hrs away! Read the mission description here http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/flybys/titan20141210/ .
A distant view of Titan on Dec4th shows sprawling Kraken in the north in the CL1 CB3 filtered image (initial part of the animation) and the colorful atmosphere in the RGB latter part of the image. Images courtesy Cassini Mission raw images http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/photos/raw/index.cfm Welcome to the Titan blog Eli! Not sure how accurate it is but when it comes to the 512 red filtered images I usually change the image size to 1024 in photoshop elements so it’s the same size as the green and blue filtered images. A ‘golden globe’ award for your CB3 MT1 MT3 filtered images Ian! |
