Thank you Roger.

This makes it easier to see the 'shape' of the disturbance as the

Marc,

 

Thank you for your excellent images of Uranus and it's satellites. I also note a brighter North Polar Region (NPR) and dusky streaks across the disk of the planet. The Dobson 320mm has done an excellent job on Uranus as well as all other objects you may desire to image.

 

May you have clear and steady skies.

Dears,

At last a decent night which allowed me to test the new ZWO ASI120MM-S, USB3 version of the ASI120MM, faster and integrating hot pixels correction. With the overclocking possibility, integrated within Firecapture, allowing me to reach 73 frames/seconds at 1280x1024 resolution .... !
So full frame is now systematic, used at dusk with Saturn and at dawn with Uranus (of course I was only imaging at 12 frames per second for the latest).

 

That is also my first try at Uranus with the Dobson 320mm I'm using since two years - but of course in 2012 and 2013 I could image Uranus at Pic du Midi with the one meter telescope.

 

Anyhow here it is, this small blue dot which moves me every time when I see it, so small, almost fragile for a giant planet four times bigger than our Earth ... Uranus with no clear details except for the bright North pole in my opinion, along with Ariel, Umbriel, Titania and Oberon (brightness enhanced) which appeared clearly despite Oberon being mag 15, and a 12.7 mag star wandering in the field:

Received: 27 August 2014 at 07:57 JST

 

Hi Everyone,

As Mars has all but gone from our skies now please find attached my 2014 apparition albedo map based on images I took of the planet this season and compiled in Winjupos.

 

 


A link to the page is here;

http://www.skyinspector.co.uk/Mars-Albedo-Maps%282376972%29.htm .

Click on the 2014 map on this page for a larger version.

Unfortunately, I had fewer imaging opportunities this apparition compared to recent previous ones and so some regions are not well covered especially at around longitudes 150
and 300. This absence of data makes the task of blending the different sections to make a seamless map nearly impossible and consequently I have decided not to go for a fully blended map but just to soften the edges of the individual sections to make the joints less visually jarring. Hope you find it of interest anyway.

Best regards,

€·····Subject: Clouds Develop Over Titan's Northern Seas

Received: 13 August 2014 at 02:59 JST

 

August 12, 2014

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We have finally begun to see what we've long anticipated: The development of clouds in the northern reaches of Titan, and what could be the start of summer weather patterns on Saturn's largest moon. 

 The lack of northern cloud activity up til now has surprised those studying Titan's atmospheric circulation. 

 Today's reports of clouds, seen a few weeks ago, and other recent indicators of seasonal change, are exciting for what they imply about Titan's meteorology and the cycling of organic compounds between northern and southern hemispheres on this unusual moon, the only one in our solar system covered in liquid organics.

Go to ...

http://ciclops.org/view/7929/Clouds-Over-Ligeia-Mare-on-Titan

... and check out the short video clip and still image.  And below, find a press release that went out a short while ago.


Enjoy!

CASSINI TRACKS CLOUDS DEVELOPING OVER A TITAN SEA

Image Advisory:
August 12, 2014

NASA's Cassini spacecraft recently captured images of clouds moving across the northern hydrocarbon seas of Saturn's moon Titan. This renewed weather activity, considered overdue by researchers, could finally signal the onset of summer storms that atmospheric models have long predicted.

A movie showing the clouds' movement is available at:

http://ciclops.org/view/7929 <https://atool.ciclops.org/view/7929>

The Cassini spacecraft obtained the new views in late July, as it receded from Titan after a close flyby. Cassini tracked the system of clouds developing and dissipating over the large methane sea known as Ligeia Mare for more than two days. Measurements of cloud motions indicate wind speeds of around 7 to
10 mph (3 to 4.5 meters per second).

For several years after Cassini's 2004 arrival in the Saturn system, scientists frequently observed cloud activity near Titan's south pole, which was experiencing late summer at the time. Clouds continued to be observed as spring came to Titan's northern hemisphere. But since a huge storm swept across the icy moon's low latitudes in late 2010, only a few small clouds have been observed anywhere on the icy moon. The lack of cloud activity has surprised researchers, as computer simulations of Titan's atmospheric circulation predicted that clouds would increase in the north as summer approached, bringing increasingly warm temperatures
to the atmosphere there.

"We're eager to find out if the clouds' appearance signals the beginning of summer weather patterns, or if it is an isolated occurrence," said Elizabeth Turtle, a Cassini imaging team associate at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab in
Laurel, Maryland. "Also, how are the clouds related to the seas? Did Cassini just happen catch them over the seas, or do they form there preferentially?"

A year on Titan lasts about 30 Earth years, with each season lasting about seven years. Observing seasonal changes on Titan will continue to be a major goal for the Cassini mission as summer comes to Titan's north and the southern latitudes fall into winter darkness.

The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), a division of the California Institute of Technology in
Pasadena, manages the Cassini-Huygens mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging team consists of scientists from the U.S., England, France, and Germany. The imaging operations center and team leader (Dr. C. Porco) are based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colo.
