Another NASA conspiracy. NO Color. When will it all end. "Chris L Peterson" wrote in message ...

They aren't processing them into color because color pictures aren't terribly useful scientifically, and I guess now that data are really pouring in they have better things to do. The few color images are probably mostly for PR. In some cases, it probably isn't possible to generate color images simply because there can be too much movement between filtered frames. The raw data are available if you want to combine some and produce color images. _________________________________________________ Chris L Peterson Cloudbait Observatory http://www.cloudbait.com |
