Default Venus EXPRESS is alive, as is the planet and Guth Venus

Wouldn't you just know it, that the first of those Venus EXPRESS 6
composite images as having been officially processed for delivering to
us village idiots as sharing in the most eye-candy, and otherwise
contributed for our investigative pleasure, whereas thus far such images
are showing us a semi-thermal gradient ratio of .075 to 0.5, as
representing a 6.67:1 ratio from the fully solar illuminated side to
those significant portions of the nighttime atmospheric season as being
considerably cooler. Actually, some of the coolest zones are not worth
0.05, thus we're talking nearly 10:1 as being the maximum differential,
that which doesn't surprise myself one bit.

It's the horrific thermal transitions from daytime to tighttime and of
those terrific polar vortex patterns that are the most reveiling.

In addition to whatever's of an unavoidably extra toasty atmospheric
season of daytime, as false colour depicted and as otherwise fully
expected, it seems the much cooler nighttime season is covering a
considerably greater percentage of that atmospheric environment by
something near 15%, with a great deal of thermal energy extraction
that's obviously taking place at the poles. Since these images are a
composite of UV through near-IR is perhaps why there's no specific
thermal gradient involved, other than the afforded by the observed
differential that's as great as 10:1, as roughly based upon the graphic
scale included with each image. The actual thermal range of
daytime/nighttime differentials will likely soon follow, unless FW
Taylor or that of our own NSA/NASA desides otherwise.

"The images (taken at 5 microns) were obtained at six different time
slots and different distances from Venus (top left: 12 April, from 210
000 kilometres; top cent 13 April, from 280 000 kilometres; top
right: 14 April, from 315 000 kilometres; bottom left:16 April, from 315
000 kilometres; bottom cent 17 April, from 270 000 kilometres; bottom
right: 19 April, from 190 000 kilometres), while the spacecraft moved
along a long ellipse around the planet. The separate images can be
downloaded here [ COB_01_geo.TIF, COB_02_geo.TIF, COB_03_geo.TIF,
COB_04_geo.TIF, COB_05_geo.TIF, COB_06_geo.TIF]."

BTW; there is also an interesting little conflicting item of less than
one degree in scope, that's seemingly operating as though above the
daytime cloud layer of that planet, that's depicted as somehow being
much cooler than the surrounding atmosphere, as well as being much too
large for any artificial satellite that we could possibly have
accomplished. It's existing as though operating just above the equator
and near the 20 degree mark. Because it's within 6 out of 6 images, as
such I'd rather doubt that it's of any imaging glitch.
