I wound up coming back to the movies so they could be included in a documentary on the Voyagers that Jackson Tyler is working on. So - here are the moons of Jupiter.

And I didn't realize Voyager 2 had seen so many volcanoes on Io, wow...

I'll work on the moons of Saturn next, then come back to Jupiter and Saturn themselves.

I re-did the timing on the Io movie, and added some of the color frames. It's still not perfect - it takes a while to figure out what frame rate to use for different segments... ah well, it'll do.

Future versions could crop and zoom into the volcanoes more, and colorize the whole thing. The latter will require automatically building a global map of the target and reprojecting it to fill in where color channels are missing. I'd like to do the whole set of movies that way eventually.
