Post T-88 flyby NAC (N00198520) view of S Belet, an area with extensive albedo darkening due to the Arrow storm's methane rain. The top two views are from the Turtle, Perry etal. paper in Science. http://www.sciencemag.org/content/331/6023/1414 The lower two raw images show regression of the dark changes with areas of brightening [C] and in (D), a photo from the T-88 flyby, the S Belet area looks much like it did (A) before the Arrow storm went through.
