The images from perijove 28 are now available. This is image PJ28_24 in approximately true color/contrast and enhanced versions:
Image 28_24 was obtained shortly before Juno's perijove which makes it a very high resolution image. The resolution is highest (slightly better than 3 km/pixel) in the top center area in the 'central' image (the biggest image). At this high resolution some of the cloud features look rather fuzzy. |

Not a lot of detail there - can we be sure these aren't cosmic ray hits, eg?

QUOTE (fredk @ Aug 2 2020, 04:44 PM)  Not a lot of detail there - can we be sure these aren't cosmic ray hits, eg? We can't be sure, but they're generally consistent with point sources (there are four pixels with values above background), whereas cosmics tend to either one pixel or many pixels in a line. See https://www.storm-t.iag.usp.br/pub/ACA0330/...leo-jupiter.pdf especially Figure 5. -------------------- Disclaimer: This post is based on public information only. Any opinions are my own.
