Bouic has dived into a data set and processed images, and Widemann, Marcq, and Wilson have interpreted them."

Very C O O O O L,

Images posted some time back by ags- Phil Miles showed some of these broad features.

Fantastic heat images from night side Lindon.

Looks like its a hideous place to be; even if future explorers and probes had a way to survive on it for any length of time..sulphuric acid dropelets and vortices sound not to pleasant.

indeed Joe,

a tropical Australian summer heatwave is frigid in comparison - until we let our greenhouse gases get into a positive feedback loop.

if i was off to Venus i'd be a bit relieved if my craft missed and had to orbit the sun for a coupla years to get back to Venus

also there is a great article in the current Australian S&T explaining Juno's early findings of Jupiter's upper atmosphere. the bands that fascinate us are relatively very thin n superficial.
