Scientific paper

The question of whether the markings of Venus vary in appearance within the range of the visual waveband is one that has been investigated by members of the M&V Section since 1956. It is agreed that in changing a red filter for a blue one, the contrast between limb and terminator is greater: the limb brightening is enhanced and the terminator shading deepened. The apparent phase may also be reduced. Most observers agree that brighter areas are better seen through green, blue or violet filters, but whether the dark markings vary in form with wavelength has always been a controversial point.
