SteveE Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I came across this from the National Optical-Infrared Astronomy Research Laboratory and thought others here might enjoy it:"Detailed new images of Jupiter captured in different colors of light reveal a multitude of atmospheric features"The detailed images can be viewed by selecting from the column of thumbnails on the right. https://noirlab.edu/...ws/noirlab2116/ Link to comment
OlDoinyo Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Includes a lovely 225/275/343 trichrome image. I don't recall seeing many trichrome UV images outside of this forum. Link to comment
Stefano Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Includes a lovely 225/275/343 trichrome image. I don't recall seeing many trichrome UV images outside of this forum.Agree, that's lovely. I remember seeing blue water in the NIR outside this forum, but I can't find it now. Found it, it is here, quite deep in the web page: https://www.randombio.com/d90infrared.html Link to comment
Bill De Jager Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Thanks for this, Steve. Very nice photos! Link to comment
dabateman Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I don't have a 225nm filter but that with the 275nm is interesting. I am surprised they went with 225, 275 and 343nm. I would have expected a 250, 313, 365nm UVC, UVB and UVA mix. But maybe that is just too much Mercury. Seeing other bands is nice. I like iodine at 208nm snd I am hoping lights come down in cost.

JMC Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Fab photos and article. I did come across mention of tri-colour UV images in an old article on microscopy (I seem to remember from the 1940s or 50s), but good to see it being done here. Link to comment
