Goals: - 2nd 'saturnshine' imaging attempt of 'moat' crater
- Regional multi-color observation of equat. transition zone

 

Pointing (pdt issues):
Saturnshine (lat_lon_230, trigger 2388): 02:21:30 UTC; tracking duration = 04:10 min.
- Tracking lat/lon = +9/325
- 1x1 'moat' crater area with illuminated part of disk just outside FOV

Color (lat_lon_231, trigger 2927): 02:27:05 UTC; tracking duration = 31:58 min.
- Tracking lat/lon = ±0/210
- 1x2 mosaic; dwells = 17:30; 13:52 min
- 1st ftprt: at ~3-o-clock position (equatorial), with limb just visible at the edge of frame
- 2nd ftprt: south of first

 

Exposures (ISSPT issues):
Saturnshine:
- 3 NAC clear filter shutters, 46s 12 bit, two 1sum, g=3, one 2sum g=2

Color:
- 1st ftprt (equat.): N24 + NP09 + WP04
- 2nd ftprt (south. lats): N16 + NP09 (ends with Ir2/Ir3 = final pic.)
- All LUT lossy
- Enforce data policy violation

Exposure times:
- see separate list (C/A > +03:00 hrs)
