Io in True Color angielski

Not true color. This is an “enhanced” photo.

Indeed.

This color mosaic uses the near-infrared, green and violet filters (slightly more than the visible range) of the spacecraft’s camera and approximates what the human eye would see.

I didn’t think about that. It almost looks metallic, or like the shading you see with 3d modelling software

The source claims that enhanced is this one: …nasa.gov/…/global-image-of-io-false-color/

This seems to be the source:

…nasa.gov/…/global-image-of-io-true-color/

Thanks! My opinion is that images from NASA, ESA etc should always link to the source. They always include interesting information about what is in the image. It is also nice if I don’t need to search the database for ages.

Yeah… I kind of wish it was a request of the channel. I’ve found a few of the sources now and it’s mostly on this channel people seem to post other people’s images with no references

I guess OP found this in yesterday’s ‘Astronomy Picture of the Day’, which includes the link you sent. Would’ve cost a second to include it in the post.

I wonder what we can do to help motivate including links to sources

I messaged the moderator asking if we could update the channel description but haven’t heard back
