Nice work Mike – that is one tough planet at that low altitude. On my monitor, there appears to be some colour fringing at the limb; blue/green then moving to yellow/red? Is this from differential atmospheric refraction due to the low altitude?

I think I can just make out the feature you described, although I’m not too sure on how to chase this down. Is there a NASA or JPL website that shows surface features?

What was the focusing operation like with the planet so low and a lack of distinct features?

Should look very nice with your to-be 2008 series.

Cheers

Dennis
