About this work
Range : 1.4 to 2 million miles These are enhanced versions of four views of Venus taken by Galileo's Solid State Imaging System. The pictures in the top row were taken about 4 and 5 days after closest approach, and those in the bottom row 6 days after closest approach, 2 hours apart. These show the faint Venusian cloud features vary clearly. A high-pass filter way applied to bring out broader global variations in tone. The bright polar hoods are a well-known feature of Venus.
