Thermal map of Venus from Sept 2023

About this image

Winjupos map of Venus from the Sept morning apparition of Venus based on 3 sessions of imaging at 1010nm. This was prepared for a forthcoming article in the Mercury and Venus newsletter 'Messenger'. The rectangle is the most detailed area and refers to the next posting of mine where I compare my map with altimetry data from the Magellan probe.
