After much fiddling and trying, I think I have pulled some night side coverage out of Voyager data. I have uploaded a composite version, as well as a crop of the best single frame by itself.

You constantly amaze me with detail you are able to coax out of this 20-year-old data. Well Done.

I’ve been playing with the Voyager Neptune raw data. I honestly believe there is a lot of night side detail visible on Triton. Have you noticed this in the post encounter data?

Yes, I posted on that a while back....There is a lot of detail visible on the receding side...I really need to do some more work on those images. Here is some stuff I posted a while back....

Due to smearing and/or underexposure, combined with the fact that the geometry was bad for night-side imaging during the time when Voyager was closest, this was the best I could pull for night-side imagery.

Astonishing, you can recognize two different terrain types (dark & bright) like in this image:

Makes we wonder where the poles are in your 'Tritonshine' image?

Bye.

Hi Ted - I'll have to look a bit closer as I wonder if the image just above would add further details to my Triton map at http://laps.noaa.gov/albers/sos/sos.html#TRITON

The crescent images are over the south polar cap. For the life of me, I can't find the exact locations.

I was still waking up earlier as I should perhaps be asking Triton-Antares about the location of that image on the bottom of post #4. This discussion might also be moved to an appropriate Triton thread if needed. Thanks all.

That image is from the planetary photojournal, if that helps.

Congratulations, that is a beautiful piece of work. Is the hemisphere of Triton lit by Neptuneshine previously unseen territory, or was it seen earlier in the encounter when in sulight?

I don't know about the Neptuneshine area. I have seen a crude chart showing that the higher resolution crescent images are on the polar cap roughly opposite the incoming high resolution coverage. However, the PDS labels give no coordinates, so I am not sure on exact locations.

There is indeed that orangish area. The color is OGV, which may be a factor. In the first Triton global color view I posted (the closest one before it filled the frame, this is also visible, but it is on the limb, rendering it really hard to see).
