Re: Titan Pictures Stink?

Re: Titan Pictures Stink?

Darn good question Errorist, considering that many of them were taken with the same cameras.  Why the difference?

I'll bet half of JPL is wondering that same thing, right now.

Re: Titan Pictures Stink?

Well, Titan is shrouded in a cloud of funk and therefore doesn't look like much in a photograph. Surface imagery requires radar mapping, which also doesn't look like much until it's jazzed up for presentation.
