Looking at the simulated views of Saturn at
http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/operation...t-position.cfm I noticed in the first view (upper-left image) the orbit of Saturn seems to have a strange kink in it, after which it looks to run parallel to a satellite orbit, possibly Phoebe's. Is that just an illusion caused by this particular perspective or is it perhaps a bug in their software? JPL has been informed of this apparent aberration but no reply has been received. It's a conspiracy! No, only joking... You'll need to bump-up the gamma to see the orbits clearly; it looks like images aren't gamma-corrected at all and will look dark on most monitors. Great renderings anyway. John. |
