Scientific paper
The planet was followed visually and by digital imaging (visible, near-IR, near-UV, 889 nm methane band). Photometric measures of raw images gave intensity and R-B colour index profiles as a function of latitude. More than 200 individual spots were tracked in various atmospheric currents; belt latitudes were measured. In the SPR we observed an SP Band, a very methane-bright hood and prograding white ovals at 60°S. ST Belts were rich in details. Prominent dark spots and a white oval occupied the STrZ at 23°S. The GRS, faintly coloured, was methane-bright, dark in UV, invisible in IR, with a marked S. edge. There were tiny SEBn/EZ(S) details, with very rapid prograding motion at 7°S. The EZ was dull, faint festoons projecting from prominent blue NEBs bars. The NEB extended beyond 20°N, hosting dark/white spots and rifts. The NTrZ/NTZ were blue; all NT Belts were often faint or absent, though the NNTBs jetstream was active. There was little structure in the NPR, with no spots recorded beyond 53°N; a methane-bright NP hood was present, fainter than the S. one. High resolution images show several dark regions on Ganymede, less sure markings over the other Galilean satellites.
